How to Make 7 Up Pot Roast Crock Pot Style

  1. Trim excess fat from a 3-4 lb chuck roast.
  2. Season the roast generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Sear the roast in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
  4. Transfer the seared roast to your slow cooker.
  5. In the same skillet, sauté the 1 large onion, 2 carrots (chopped), and 2 celery stalks (chopped) until softened. Approximately 5 minutes.
  6. Add the sautéed vegetables to the slow cooker.
  7. Pour 2 cups of 7 Up and 1 cup of beef broth over the roast and vegetables.
  8. Add 4 cloves of minced garlic.
  9. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the roast is fork-tender.
  10. Remove the roast from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
  11. Skim excess fat from the cooking liquid.
  12. Thicken the cooking liquid (optional): Mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the cooking liquid and simmer for a few minutes until thickened.
  13. Serve the sliced pot roast with the delicious 7 Up gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.
