Ingredients

  • 3 lb beef roast
  • 2 cups beef broth low sodium
  • 1 medium turnip
  • 1 green pepper
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 2 cups baby red potatoes
  • 1 cup baby carrots
  • 2 tsp garlic minced
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbs dried parsley
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Instructions

  • Coarsely chop a turnip, 1 green pepper 1 onion and 2 stalks celery. Then add the chopped veggies to a crock pot. Then add two cups of small red potatoes and 1 cup of baby carrots.
  • Then season the beef roast with salt and pepper. Then place it over the veggies. Kind of work it in a bit so that it sits within the veggies instead of directly on top. Then finally add the minced garlic and 1 tbs parsley flakes.
  • Finally add 2 cups of beef broth and let it cook for 8-10 hours on low.
  • After the 8-10 hours the veggies will be fully cooked along with the pot roast. Remove the pot roast and veggies to a platter.
  • Strain the remaining meat juice into a sauce pan. Then whisk 1/2 cup cold water with 1/4 cup flour. Then slowly whisk that into the meat juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until the gravy thickens. It will become thick and bubbly.
  • Remove the gravy from the stove and serve over the meat and veggies.
