Crock Pot Roast Beef-Comfort Food

Simple recipes are sometimes the best. Who says simple is not good? Not me.

After a week of mostly leftovers I promised last night that I would make my husband a good comfort food supper.

This is a regular Sunday after church lunch in my southern home now and then.

Before we put in the ingredients let's start with a wonderful invention. The Reynolds Slow Cooker Liners (and no they aren't paying me!!). One thing I hated about crock pots was the clean up either I had a crock pot that the bowl did not come out of the heating element or the bowl was so big heavy and bulky cleaning was difficult. Being a coupon queen I clipped a coupon for the SlowCooker Liners and gave it a try. I was hooked and my husband was hooked.

So get your Crock Pot out and let's go.

3 lb Boneless Chuck Roast

2 cans of Campbell's Golden Mushroom

16oz bag of Baby Carrots

6 Red Potatoes cut in large chunks

McCormick Season All

Use the McCormick Season All to season both sides of the roast and place in lined cooker. Pour 2 cans of Campbell Golden Mushroom and 1 can of water. 16 oz bag of Baby Carrots and Red Potatoes and cook for 8-9 hours on low.

HINT: If you are going to be home while cooking add the red potatoes after 4 hours. That way they aren't too soft.

HINT2: Add fresh mushrooms, celery or onion if you like. I am just making my family's traditional style.

Well I can't wait until tonight to partake of my number one comfort recipe.
