Pot Roast and Vegetables {Crock Pot Meal}

One of my favorite things about buying beef in bulk is that I then have a freezer full of delicious roasts.  When I first pack the freezer I try to layer it will the various cuts of meat.  I am at the very bottom of my freezer stash right now.  About 15 months after buying a cow.  At the very bottom is a layer of all my favorites, a roast, a package of stew meat, a package of rib-eyes, and a package of ground chuck.

As the weather starts to cool it is time for pot roast in the crock pot.  This is a favorite way for me to provide a delicious meal for my family on a busy weeknight with very little effort.  I place everything it the crock pot in the morning, set the probe and leave it while I am at work.  It would just as easy to prepare the night before as well.







Ingredients

Sirloin Tip Roast (about 2lbs)
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp rosemary
1/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp cardamon
3-4 organic potatoes, peeled a cubed
5 oz of organic baby carrots

Place roast and vegetables in crock pot.  Sprinkle seasonings over meat and vegetables. Insert probe into meat and set for 145 degrees on low heat.  Cook for about 8 hours or until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees.  My crock pot switches to warm automatically when done.
