Crockpot Roast New Potatoes and Carrots are one of the meals I cooked a lot while we were in the hotel this summer as our house was being repaired.
Cooking in the crockpot is more out of convenience for me than anything else, but in the hotel, we didn't have an oven so, the crockpot was perfect.
I usually put my roast in the crockpot before I go to bed at night and cook it on low all night.
Get up the next morning and turn it to warm. And two or three hours before serving it, I put the potatoes and carrots in and turn to high.
Don't you just love these one pot meals!
I have an oven recipe for Sunday Pot Roast that I make a little different than I do in the crockpot. For the crockpot recipe, I use a package of Lipton Onion Soup Mix. Since I don't brown my roast for the crockpot before I cook it, the onion soup mix gives it that browning flavor and brings out the dark gravy color too.
With the crockpot recipe, I use new potatoes instead of the Irish potatoes. They hold up and don't break apart with the occasional stirring I like do. I cut a couple of onions in quarters instead of slicing them like I do in the oven recipe.
