Tips

• Grocers ofttimes label cuts of meat for pot roasts, merely wait for lean chuck roast, blade roast, seven-bone, rump roast, bottom round, or shoulder roast.
• Condensation in the crock pot waters down the juices by the end of the cooking fourth dimension. If you desire to make gravy, pour the liquid into a medium saucepan and bring it to a boil; simmer briskly for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the volume reduces by about half to concentrate the flavors. Thicken the gravy past combining 2 teaspoons of cornstarch or about i tablespoon of flour with a few tablespoons of cold water and mixing until smoothen. Stir the paste into the simmering juices until thoroughly incorporated and thickened. Serve the gravy with the sliced pot roast.
• Substitute other vegetables for the potatoes and carrots if yous wish. Choose options with similar textures such every bit sweet potatoes, turnips, or butternut squash chunks instead of potatoes; and parsnips, fennel, or celery root (celeriac) in identify of carrots. Whatever you choose to employ, go on the size of the pieces consequent. You can besides add together red, yellow, or white onion cut into big wedges.

Why is my pot roast tough?
