![]() Since it will be cooking in the slow cooker all day, you can go with less expensive cuts. You will need 2-3 pounds of whatever cut you opt for. Beef: I like to use inexpensive Inside or Outside Round beef roasts in this recipe.What Ingredients Do I Need to Make This All Day Crock Pot Recipe? The delicious juices from the beef roast meld with the cream of mushroom soup and seasonings to create a yummy “gravy.” Gravy is in quotations because as a gravy-lover-extraordinaire, it pains me to call something made with condensed soup “gravy.” Nonetheless it functions as such. My recipe for EASIEST Ever Slow Cooker Pot Roast can be assembled in the morning and cooked slow and low ALL DAY, until you’re ready to serve in the evening. I consider a recipe an “all day crock pot meal” when it requires at least 8 hours of cooking, but can be cooked longer if needed. There are a few things that really seem to get better the longer they cook. It was during this time I learned about the “all day crock pot recipe”. ![]() I bought a programmable slow cooker to help prevent overcooking and burning, and that was the best investment ever!Įven still, having our meals on the “warm” setting for 4 or 5 hours wasn’t always the best either. When I worked outside of the home though, I would be gone for 8-10 hours a day, and needed to prep my slow cooker meals at 6 AM. Now that I’m at home all day, it’s totally fine to set my crockpot for 4 or 6 hours, since I can just prep it in the later morning to be ready for supper around 6PM. ![]() One of my pet peeves is that many slow cooker recipes have cook times that are on the short side. I actually did that when making this recipe to photograph and had great results. BUT, if you are planning on making this sometime in the future, you can make up a batch of my homemade cream of mushroom soup and freeze it for later. Making the condensed soup from scratch, of course, adds time and takes away the ease of this recipe. I’ve used my homemade version in this particular recipe with great success, and I absolutely love the flavor that it imparts. The good news? If you really really really don’t want to use a can of soup, I’ve developed (what I consider to be) an awesome recipe for Homemade Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup. I love using those little cans of mushroom goup (yes, I said “goup”, not to be mistaken with “soup”) in all sorts of recipes (like my Poppy Seed Chicken and Rice Casserole), including this one. ![]() There is no shame in using some shortcuts now and then, even if you do consider yourself an advanced home cook. Before you freak out/leave/hit the back button as fast as you can… Hear Me Out! You heard it right, I use that salty little can of glory in this recipe.
