  • Author: Sarah
  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Cook Time: 8 hours
  • Total Time: 8 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

3 lb chuck roast

1 lb carrots, peeled and halved

1 packet onion soup mix

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Optional: French Fried Onions


Instructions

Place the meat in a slow cooker.  Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and onion soup mix.  Add carrots and 1/2 cup water.  Cook on low for 7-9 hours, until tender.


Notes

If serving with Garlic and Herb Mashed Potatoes, place the meat on top of a bed of mashed potatoes.  In a frying pan, heat French Fried Onions over medium heat until fragrant and just started to brown.  Top the meat with a sprinkle of French Fried Onions and serve the carrots on the side.  Alternatively, you can add baby Yukon potatoes to the slow cooker for a one-pot meal.
