Instructions

1 Pat the roast dry and rub the seasoning mix on all sides, then coat with flour.
2 Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high. Once hot, sear the roast on all
sides for 2-3 minutes until a brown crust forms. Remove from heat and set aside.
3 Mix the gravy ingredients. Pour a bit into the skillet used for searing and
scrape up any browned bits. Transfer everything to the slow cooker with the
roast and its juices.
4 Cut potatoes in halves or thirds if large. Peel and cut carrots into halves or
thirds, or slice lengthwise if thick.
5 Arrange potatoes around the roast and top with carrots. Secure the lid and cook
on high for 5-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours.
6 Carefully transfer the roast, potatoes, and carrots to a serving platter and
cover with foil.
7 Prepare the gravy:
8 Pour juices from the crock into a saucepan (or place stovetop-safe crock
directly on the stove). Bring to a boil. Mix cornstarch and water, then
gradually whisk into the juices. Lower heat and simmer until thickened. Add
Kitchen Bouquet for color, if desired, and swirl in cold butter before serving.
9 Season potatoes and carrots with salt and pepper, if desired, and serve.
