BBQ Pot Roast for The Crock Pot


For my first ever venture into the world of the crock pot, I decided to make a favorite of mine; pot roast! I was a little bit scared because this was my first time ever using my crock pot and second pot roast just sounds a little intimidating. It ended up being a huge success and tasted really good! I definitely urge you to try this recipe because it was really good and a pot roast will be enough food for several meals which is perfect for a broke college student in the dorms. So here is the recipe and my pot roast!


INGREDIENTS
2-3 pound chuck roast
10 small red potatoes cut up
10 carrots cut up
1 onion sliced
1 bottle of BBQ sauce

PREPARATION
First what you want to do is wash your meat and place it in the bottom of you crock pot. Even though the recipe doesn't call for it, I rubbed soy sauce on the roast for flavor because i've seen my mom do that. Next, cut all of the vegetables to your liking. I actually left out the onion because i don't like them and I added more carrots because I love them. Sprinkle your vegetables over the top of the meat inside your crock pot. Lastly, top your vegetables and meat with the entire 18 ounce bottle of BBQ sauce. There you go thats it! Now just set your crock pot to low and wait 8 hours.

When this was done, it was incredible. The meat was so tender it was literally falling apart. I served it with the vegetables and also made some super easy blueberry muffins to go with it. It was a muffin mix that I purchased at Walmart for like a dollar and all I had to do was add milk!

Definitely try this out because it was worth the 8 hour wait and it is money saving because it lasted for like 4 meals!

Happy Cooking!
