Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 " of water
  • Beef Bouillon Cube 1
  • 2 Pound Chuck Roast
  • Carrots 2 Very large peeled and cut.
  • 5 Medium Potatoes Peeled, cubed into large bite-size pieces (not too small)
  • 5 Stalks of Celery (peeled Chopped into 4" pieces
  • 1 Tbsp of Gravy Master for flavor, color, and texture
  • A hearty sprinkling of Freshly Milled Pepper
  • Patience: The ability to wait patiently as you smell this cooking

Instructions
 

  • Select Setting #4 for 6-10 Hours and remove at 8 hours
  • Place 1/4" of water in the base (not more, but you could even go a bit less).
  • Next the beef soft bouillon cube.
  • Then the Gravy Master (again optional, used for flavoring)
  • Now put the Chuck Roast in the base
  • Top the roast first with potatoes, the filling is sides and base.
  • Then add in carrots and celery.
  • Add freshly milled pepper (optional if you don't want pepper don't use it)
  • Cover with Lid.
  • Walk away and remove at 8 hours (you can leave it cooking up to 10 hours if you are not home or ready.
  • When you open the lid, use caution from steam that may release and use a hot mitt to handle the lid and pot handles (if removing from the base).
  • The roast is going to fall apart so be prepared when picking up the roast or it will fall right back into the mix.
  • If serving homestyle (like you are not doing any more dishes and using the pot, lol) just shred the meat with the fork, (it will fall apart) to create smaller pieces.
  • However, if you are transferring to a serving dish, you will want to use a spoon to scoop the meat as it will just fall apart.
  • Also, this will allow you to scoop the veggies into a dish as well.
  • Mix the veggies and pot roast meat pieces together so it evens out for scoops.
  • Serve warm.
  • Refrigerate leftovers.
