I prefer to use the oven for pot roasts because I like them better than in a crock pot. But if you have to use a crockpot because of work, don't cover roast with water. Just put in enough to cover bottom of crock pot.

I use chuck roasts. They are cheaper and in my opinion, better tasting than the expensive cuts.

1 roast
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can of Coca Cola (Coke brand is best)
1 package of Lipton onion soup mix
Potatoes and carrots to put around roast

Put roast in pan. Place carrots and potatoes around roast. Put in just enough water to cover bottom of pan. Then spoon cream of mushroom soup over top of meat and veggies. Sprinkle onion soup mix over top of this. Then, pour can of Coke over top of all. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in preheated 350 oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

If using the crockpot, the only difference is put on low all day.

Shellie:

Can Diet Coke be used instead of Coke???

thanks.

Dan,

I have used diet cokes. It just doesn't have the sweetness, but it is still good.

Shellie I have cooked your recipe and it is good.Great to put on Sat.night and have for Sunday after church.

My wife makes an awesome roast, but typically only includes onions and jalapinoes (as opposed to carrots and taters and such -- I don't like boiled carrots, and I prefer creamed taters on the side with roast). It's goody good good!

Poimen,

I back you up on that one. The roast your wife cooked for us was wonderful and I will use that recipe from time to time.
