I heart Crockpots...

update: i forgot to mention that you should throw potatoes and carrots in with the roast to make it a more 'well rounded' meal (they turn out awesome...even if they are sticking out of the water at first they will sink in and get cooked!)

I'm one of those people who doesn't really like to cook. Don't get me wrong...I LOVE food, but I don't really enjoy the process of making it, especially after a long day of work. I would much prefer cuddling in my slanket with Google Reader to catch up on my blogs.

So its not a huge surprise that my favorite kitchen gadget is the crockpot. What could be better than something that slowcooks amazing food while you are at work?? I've been using it for some time to make certain dishes, but my recent obsession has been to find as many good crockpot recipes as possible so that I NEVER have to actually cook on a week night. I don't mind so much on the weekends cuz I'm not dead tired.

Anyway....I tried a new crockpot recipe this week and I think it is by far the best one yet SO i thought I'd pass it along. Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast. I'm not a big roast person usually, but this really was awesome...SO TENDER! Anyway... try it...you'll eat a delicious meal and the only prep time is the time it takes to put the stuff in the pot and then 8 hours later you serve it up!
