Total Time: 8 hours 15 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
1 packet dry onion soup mix
10.5 ounce can low sodium cream of mushroom soup
14 ounce can low sodium beef broth
1-1/2 pounds beef chuck roast
1-1/2 Tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning (you can just use salt and pepper or any seasoning flavors you prefer)
To thicken gravy: (see notes below)
2 Tablespoons butter
3 Tablespoons flour
Instructions
In a 5 quart slow cooker, combine 1 packet dry onion soup mix, 10.5 ounce can low sodium cream of mushroom soup, and 14 ounce can low sodium beef broth. Whisk to combine (don't worry if there are lumps, they will come out as it cooks).
Cut 1 1/2 pounds beef chuck roast (or smaller if you prefer). Sprinkle 1 1/2 Tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning on beef and stir it around to make sure it is all coated.
Add meat to crock pot and give it all a good stir.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
Optional to thicken the gravy: about 20 minutes before serving, in a medium pot, melt 2 Tablespoons butter. Once it is melted, add in about 3 Tablespoons flour. Whisk it together.
Then pour in 2 cups of the beef broth mixture from crock pot into the butter/flour mixture. Whisk it again until smooth, then bring the heat up to high (while whisking briskly the whole time.) It should quickly begin to thicken
Once it gets to your desired thickness, take it off the heat and pour it back into then crock pot.
Stir well then serve over rice or noodles or all by itself!
