directions

  • Place roast in crock pot and season liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Cook bacon in skillet until crispy.
  • Add mushrooms, wine, onion, broth, and thyme to the crock pot with the roast while you are waiting for the bacon to cook.
  • When the bacon is done, add it to the crock pot and give it a good stir to mix all of the flavors together.
  • Set your crock pot at low for 7-8hrs.
  • I recommend at least 8 hours because your roast will become soo tender it will literally fall apart as you try to remove it from the dish.
  • If your roast seems tough yet, just give it a little more time, it will only get more tender the longer it cooks.
  • Remove the roast and transfer the remaining sauce to a sauce pan.
  • Mix 1/2 cup of flour with 1 cup of cold water.
  • Gradually add flour mixture to the remaining sauce while whisking over med high heat until sauce thickens.
  • Serve gravy over mashed potatoes.

  1. This was okay....too much thyme, maybe reduce by half next time.
     
  2. This was the best! So easy and the most delicious dinner. I served with mashed potatoes and made the gravy as mentioned and it was great! Put some steamed greenbeans next to it and it was wonderful. ~L
