A tender and juicy Crock Pot Pot Roast made with dry onion soup mix and a can of cranberry sauce. Super flavorful and easy to make! Serve over egg noodles for a wonderful comfort food meal.
When I was leafing through one of my favorite cookbooks recently, Miss Mary Bobo’s Boarding House Cookbook: A Celebration of Traditional Southern Dishes that Made Miss Mary Bobo’s an American Legend
And I do love Cranberry Meatballs, so I thought why not Cranberry Pot Roast?
Super Flavorful Gravy
Well, it turns out the pot roast doesn’t really taste like cranberries at all. But the sauce really develops a wonderful, almost indescribable flavor with just a slight sweetness and it has a fabulous deep reddish-brown color.
How To Serve
There’s really nothing like a pot roast cooked in the crock pot. A cheap piece of meat turns into the most succulent, tender, juicy, and flavorful meal. I like to serve this pot roast over either egg noodles or mashed potatoes with a side of peas. Actually, I like to mix the peas in with the pot roast, but my family objects to that. Pea haters. I don’t understand them. A side of Yeast Rolls goes wonderfully with this roast.

What Type Of Meat To Use?
I find that chuck roast is the best cut of meat to use for pot roast. It cooks up wonderfully tender and it has ample fat to make a super flavorful pot roast.
How Long To Cook?
It will take 8 to 10 hours on LOW for the beef to get fall-apart tender. This makes it a great recipe to get started in the morning before work.
