Slow Cooker Anyday: Super Easy Pot Roast

2011 August 12
by Emily Hill

I know, I know. A pot roast slow cooker recipe isn’t necessarily a summer favorite, but yesterday I had a frozen roast begging to be cooked. How could I say no even if summer is in full swing?

This Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast from Allrecipes.com is my go-to slow cooker roast recipe. If you want to fancy it up a bit, salt and pepper the roast and brown in a pan before placing in the slow cooker. Round it out with my “famous” homemade dinner rolls and a green salad and you’re good to go—even in 90-degree heat!


Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast
2 (10.75-oz) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (1-oz) package dry onion soup mix
1 1/4 c water
5 1/2 lbs pot roast

In your slow cooker, mix the cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix and water. Place the roast in the slow cooker and coat with the soup mixture. Cook on high for 3 to 4 hours or on low for 8 to 9 hours.

Don’t forget to serve the roast with a side of these babies:

    It really is SUPER easy and always yummy. The family loves the gravy it makes–great over potatoes and even veggies.
