🥕🥔 Cammie’s Kitchen | Episode 5: Slow Cooker Pot Roast
Sunday suppa, anyone? 🍽️❤️
Tender, fall-apart chuck roast, homemade gravy, buttery mashed potatoes, and a little garden goodness! Comfort food at its finest.
And yes, those potatoes came straight from my garden! 🥔🌱
HERE’S THE RECIPE! ⬇️
🥩 POT ROAST
• 2 chuck roasts (6–8 lb total)
• Salt, pepper, garlic & onion powder
• 2 tbsp avocado or olive oil
• 3–4 shallots, quartered
• 4–6 garlic cloves, minced
• 4–5 carrots, chopped
• 3–4 celery stalks, chopped
• Fresh rosemary
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• Splash of red w**e (optional)
🥔 MASHED POTATOES
• 3–4 lb Yukon Gold potatoes
• 4–6 tbsp butter
• ½–1 cup warm milk or cream
• Salt + pepper
🥣 GRAVY
• Roast cooking liquid
• 1 tbsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp cold water
LET’S GET COOKING!
1. SEASON: Pat roasts dry and season generously with herbs and spices.
2. SEAR: Brown all sides in a hot, oiled pan until a beautiful crust forms. Transfer to slow cooker.
3. AROMATICS: Sauté shallots and garlic in the same pan, then add to the slow cooker.
4. BUILD: Mix broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire, and optional w**e. Pour over roasts. Add carrots, celery, and rosemary.
5. SLOW COOK: Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours until fork-tender.
6. POTATOES: Refrigerate the cooked roast overnight once safely cooled. Skim the fat and reheat thoroughly. Boil peeled, chopped potatoes until tender, then mash with butter, warm milk or cream, and seasonings.
7. GRAVY: Simmer cooking liquid. Stir in cornstarch mixed with cold water until thickened. Serve over mashed potatoes with roast and carrots!
And somehow only ONE carrot made it into my bowl. 😂🥕
Good food’s worth the wait! ❤️
