Slow Cooked Pot Roast

So pot roast has always been on of my favorites and I have been given multiple ways of doing it by family and friends... So far I have mashed them together to come up with a delicious dinner! Always looking to improve and experiment!

Steps

1

You can brown the roast on all sides in A large skillet to help lock in flavors and help keep the roast together. I choose not to because I like my roast to fall apart when poked with a meat fork :)
2

Rinse roast and then rub down with all seasonings (Thyme, Onion & Garlic Powder, Paprika, Basil, Sage, Salt & Pepper-- I use A LOT of pepper). Place roast in crockpot. Pour package of French Onion Soup/Mix on roast. Pour 1 box of Beef Broth around the roast. Add Onions around the roast then Carrots. Add last box of Beef Broth. Add package of brown gravy. Lastly, add in Potatoes. Put lid on, set crockpot on low for 10 hours.
