Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Recipe adapted from this







INGREDIENTS
Chuck roast / Rump roast (desired size depending on slow cooker size)
~5 Red potatoes (or ~2 Russet) - chopped, skin optional
Baby carrots
2 cans Cream of mushroom soup
1 packet onion soup mix
1 packet ranch powder
1 packet beef gravy mix

DIRECTIONS
Brown outside of roast in a skillet.
Place roast on top of vegetables in slow cooker.
Mix the soup/seasoning packets together in a bowl and dump over the roast.
Cook on low ~10 hours, or high ~5 hours.

*I made a version of this using (2) 2lb cuts of roast, 1 cream mushroom, the 3 seasoning packets, like 6oz of beer, various seasonings, and chopped red potatoes (red potatoes taste awesome cooked in beer in slow cooker, I 1st had them when I did a corned beef). I served over grits cooked in ckn broth and mixed with cheese. The grits were meh but they were good when the gravy from the slow cooker was poured on.(see photos)
