Hi Lauren, it might need a little extra time. You could cook it on high if you are short on time. Enjoy!

Tried this today with a 2.5 lb bottom round roast, yellow potatoes and carrot sticks.
Cooked on high for 5 hours and it came out perfect. So tender and juicy.

Followed recipe almost exactly. Used a chuck roast. Only had baby carrots, so used those. Didn’t have tomato paste and did not add ketchup. Think I used about 1-1/3 c beef stock. Roast was done on low at 7.5 hours. Veggies were soft but not mushy. Spooned out about a cup of gravy from crockpot and put in saucepan on stove with a bit more cornstarch slurry to thicken up a bit more. Very yummy!

Hi Ashly! So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for this kind review!

Such a delicious meal! And so great to have it all done at once in one pot! Thank you so much for this recipe. I did need an extra cornstarch slurry at the end to thicken the gravy while I let the roast rest, tented, and the vegetables cool slightly. Next time I won’t leave the vegetables in for the full 8 hours. They were probably done in 5-6. Didn’t need the ketchup at the end and I added hot pepper flakes and garlic for our tastes. The chuck roast was phenomenal, fell right apart and was so flavorful. We usually do a spoon roast (sirloin roast) and this is so much more economical and actually probably better.

Hi Debbie! So glad you enjoyed the recipe! Thank you for this kind review!

This is so delicious it turned out perfectly. I have a large crockpot, so I put two Chuck roasts in,a tad over 5 pounds,and then quadrupled the sauce directions.

My husband and son made them into French dips and then ate the vegetables on the side
I also think this would be wonderful for shredded beef enchiladas with all the gravy I have left.
I put the crockpot on high for 4 1/2 hours.

Hi Kristen! So glad you enjoyed the recipe! Thank you for this kind review!

Loved this recipe. I only have a 3.5quart crockpot. I add the same amount of ingredients but have to stir it around some to cook all the potatoes throughly. This is my second time making it. I loved the taste and the gravy. The roast was tender and delicious. I would like a bit more gravy to drizzle so I’m trying one of recommendations from another review and adding more broth. Hoping it goes well. Thanks for the recipe!
