How to Make Bek's Pot Roast Crock Pot

  1. Chop vegetables: dice onion, carrots, and celery. Slice mushrooms (if using).
  2. Layer crock-pot: Place chopped vegetables in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  3. Add the roast: Place the beef chuck roast on top of the vegetables.
  4. Season generously: Season the roast with salt and pepper.
  5. Add water: Pour 3 tablespoons of water into the crock-pot.
  6. Slow cook: Cook on low for 10-12 hours, or on high for 6-8 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
  7. Remove and keep warm: Remove the meat and vegetables to a large serving dish or bowl. Cover to keep warm.
  8. Make the gravy: In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together 3 tablespoons of flour and 1/4 cup of cold water until smooth.
  9. Whisk in juices: Gradually whisk in the hot juices from the crock-pot into the flour mixture, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
  10. Combine: Once the measuring cup is full, pour the gravy mixture back into the crock-pot and stir to combine with the remaining juices.
  11. Serve: Pour gravy over the meat and vegetables, or serve gravy on the side. Serve immediately.
