Pot Roast With Sweet Potatoes image

This recipe came from a Better Homes and Gardens crock pot cookbook. I love sweet potatoes and thought this would be a nice change from the usual pot roast. I used apple juice in place of the water.

Time 8h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs chuck roast
1 tablespoon oil
1 medium onion, sliced
2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Trim the fat from the pot roast. Heat oil in a skillet and brown the meat on all sides.
  • Place the onions and potatoes in the crock pot and place the meat on top.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the top. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
  • Remove meat and vegetables and place on platter.
  • If desired, for gravy, pour juices into a glass measuring cup. Skim off fat and add water to equal 2 cups of liquid. Pour into a small saucepan over medium heat. Mix 2 tbs cornstarch and 2 tbs cold water and add to liquid. Cook and stir until thick and bubbly.
