    The most delicious pot roast I ever made came from a recipe sent to me by my brother. You take salt, pepper and garlic powder and rub it into the roast. Place it immediately into the Crockpot and cover with 1-2 cans of Progresso cream of mushroom soup + 1 packet of Lipton onion soup mix. Add about 1/2 of a soup can of water. Chop up a large onion and toss it in. Cook 6-8 hours. This makes the most delicious, tender pot roast I've ever had, and it gets me lots of compliments. It is best when paired with mashed potatoes!

    My mom always seared or browned the meat on each side (in oil) before putting it in the cooker. It seals in the juices and makes the outside of the meat much tastier.
