Ingredients

1 pot roast 3 to 4-pound
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 packet 1 ounce onion soup mix
2 cups baby yellow potatoes
2 cups baby carrots
2 cups celery chopped
2 cups onion chopped
2 cups beef broth
Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the slow cooker by coating it lightly with cooking spray.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pot roast for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
Place the seared roast in the slow cooker and sprinkle the onion soup mix over the top.
Add the baby potatoes, baby carrots, celery, and chopped onion around the roast.
Pour the beef broth over everything, ensuring the vegetables are partially submerged.
Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
Remove the roast, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice or shred as desired.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Store leftovers of this easy pot roast made in the crock pot in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Let your pot roast rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing or shredding it so the juices can redistribute, ensuring the meat remains moist.
