Crock pot Roast and potatoes-How to…

I’ve never noticed how I do some things the same way EVERY TIME. One of those is dicing potatoes. I’ve been cutting potatoes since I could hold a chef’s knife. And I probably cut them like this first time I ever did it. It seemed to work and that’s just how I do it! I’ve seen other people cut/dice a thousand different ways. When I get in the kitchen and get lost in what’s on my mind, I go on auto-pilot. So, for those who aren’t sure what “dicing potatoes” means, here is my way.

1. Cut potato in 1/2” slices.

2. Take half of the slices, stack them up. Make one slice lengthwise

Place potatoes, carrots, onions in crock pot. Season with salt pepper and other seasonings of choice.

Sear roast (optional) in skillet with 2 T of oil. Place on top of vegetables.

Pour in enough beef stock or water to almost cover vegetables. The roast will give a lot of it’s own juices.

Cook on low 6-9 hours.
