    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Jennah88

    List of Ingredients




    I make my roast in my crockpot and it never comes out soupy, only nice and tender.

    1 - 2 to 2.5 lb chuck roast
    1 TBLS cooking oil
    3 med. potatoes
    8 carrots or parsnips, cut into 1-inch pieces
    3 small onions, cut into wedges
    3/4 C. water
    1 TBLS Worcestershire sauce
    2 beef bouillon cubes
    1 tsp. dried basil, crushed

    Trim fat from roast and brown in a pan with the oil.

    Recipe



    Clean, peel and quarter potatoes. Place, potatoes, cut carrot or parsnips and onion (I usually only use 1 onion) in crockpot. Place browned meat on top of veggies.

    You're suppose to combine the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and pour over the meat and veggies, but I just pour the water & Worcestershire sauce over the meat, place the bouillon cubes inside and then sprinkle the basil all over.

    Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or high for 5 to 6 hours. (I've never cooked mine longer than the 8 hours on low).

    When done, remove meat and veggies. Pour juices into measuring cup, skim fat. You need 1 1/2 C. of juice, add water if necessary. Put in saucepan. Combine 1/2 C. cold water and 1/4 C. flour, stir into juices. Cook until thickened, season to taste.
