CROCKPOT CHUCK ROAST RECIPE

Happy Christmas Eve to those that celebrate Christmas!

I hope you guys have a relaxing, food filled holiday spent with your loved ones.

Today’s Crockpot Chuck Roast Recipe is the type of dish that melts in your mouth. It is one of my favorite meals to make at the holidays and is an easy recipe.

If you are still looking for holiday meal ideas, this one would be a hit. It also works great on those busy weeknights or a sunday supper.

Another great idea for the holidays is this recipe for The Best Roast Beef or this Slow Cooker Balsamic Pot Roast.

One bite of this tender pot roast and you and your guests will be sold!

The ingredient that sets this slow cooker pot roast apart from others is the freshly brewed coffee.  

The acidity of the coffee helps to tenderize the meat when it cooks in the slow cooker and creates a rich depth of flavor.

I decided to use coffee in this Slow Cooker Pot Roast recipe to help infuse a little extra flavor in the pot roast.

I promise it tastes wonderful and the coffee is more of a subtle flavor to help give the pot roast extra flavor and gives it that melt in your mouth texture.

The juices from the coffee infuse throughout the whole pot roast creating a tender beef meal. It really is the best pot roast recipe.

This pairs nicely with the tender potatoes and carrots and a fresh side salad.

I promise your family will be asking for seconds.

WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE IN THIS SLOW COOKER POT ROAST RECIPE?

BEEF: The cut of meat I used is a 3 1/2 to 4 pound boneless chuck roast for this pot roast recipe. I cut it in half against the grain to fit in the crockpot.

I love the way that cut of beef cooks in the slow cooker and becomes fall apart tender and creates a juicy pot roast. It makes such a delicious roast.

This cut works nicely in a lot of recipes like these Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches or these Slow Cooker 4 Ingredient Shredded Beef Tacos.

VEGETABLES AND POTATOES: When I make a pot roast I like to add vegetables and potatoes when cooking it in the slow cooker.

I used onions, regular carrot { or try baby carrots } and white potatoes in this recipe. You can add other vegetables like bell peppers or celery and other potatoes like red potatoes.

When it is all done cooking you have a full meal waiting.

BROTH: The beef broth helps to infuse flavor into the roast and create a tender meat. 

COFFEE: The coffee also tenderizes the beef and creates a subtle warm flavor within the pot roast. 

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

SEASON THE CHUCK ROAST: Start by buying a 3 1/2 to 4 pound piece of chuck roast. You will want to rub salt and pepper on the entire chuck roast making sure to get both sides.

CHOP VEGETABLES & POTATOES: Now you will want to chop your potatoes and carrots and put them in a large mixing bowl. Throw a quick sprinkle of salt and pepper on the vegetables.

ADD INGREDIENTS TO CROCKPOT: Put a layer of the potatoes and vegetables on the bottom of the slow cooker, followed by the beef roast, then the remaining potatoes, carrots, onions and garlic, followed by the brewed coffee and vegetable broth.

COVER SLOW COOKER AND COOK: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 5-6 hours. So easy!

While you can cook this dish on high in your crockpot, I highly suggest you cook it at a low temperature to create a tender pot roast. Slow Cooking is the best way to get fork tender meat!

Serve on a serving platter and garnish with fresh herbs like fresh parsley and fresh chives.

In the recipe I also provide a rich gravy recipe if you want a gravy!

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

WAYS TO MODIFY SLOW-COOKER CHUCK ROAST RECIPES

MEDITERRANEAN: Infuse your chuck roast with Mediterranean flavors by using ingredients like olive oil, lemon, garlic, rosemary, and oregano. Serve it with roasted vegetables like tomatoes, red bell peppers, and zucchini and pair it with couscous.

ASIAN INSPIRED: Modify your chuck roast with Asian flavors by using ingredients like onion powder, garlic powder, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil. You can add vegetables like bok choy, bell peppers, and snap peas for a delicious Asian twist.

TEX-MEX STYLE: You can create a Tex-Mex inspired chuck roast by seasoning it with cumin, chili powder, oregano, and smoked paprika. I like to also add in worcestershire sauce. Serve it with salsa, avocado, and lime wedges, and consider shredding the meat for tacos or burritos.
