Pot Roast

Recipe VIDEO above. The ultimate one-pot family meal! Meltingly tender slow cooker beef and vegetables smothered in a gravy like sauce - because it's so much tastier than just a watery broth! I like to make this in my slow cooker but I've also added directions for pressure cooker, stove and oven.

Instructions
