This is one of our favorite meals.  First, because it tastes SO good.  Another big reason for me is that it makes multiple meals.  The first day we have a traditional roast beef dinner with all the yumminess that goes along with it.  The next day I’ll shred the beef and put it on garlic toast for roast beef sandwiches.  And then…… You get the point.  The third reason is that it’s SOOOOO easy.  Here’s how I make mine.

Peel enough potatoes for everyone in your family……

I quarter mine and put them into the bottom of the crock pot.

Peel as many carrots as your family will eat.  Hayden will not touch a carrot unless it is sliced into ribbons for a salad.  So he doesn’t get any, lol.

Cut them up and put them into the bottom too.

Next goes in the onions……

Mushrooms……

Then the beef.  I buy whatever is on the clearance rack in the meat department.  One thing that I have noted over the years though.  The cheaper the cut of meat, the BETTER this is.  Seriously.  This one happened to be a shoulder roast.

I add a can of beef broth to the crock pot and sprinkle about a tablespoon of minced, dried onions over the top of the meat.  Salt and pepper everything.

Pop the lid on and set it to cook on low for about 8 hours.  I love my Crock Pot, by the way. 

Yum!

Heaven on a plate.  Here are my recipes for coleslaw and melt in your mouth green beans.
