SLOW
COOKER
POT ROAST






3 to 4 lb. beef pot roast
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
1 lb can tomatoes
1/2 cup dry red wine (optional)
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp pepper
2 Tbsp butter or margarine, softened
2 Tbsp flour
Brown the beef pot roast in the butter in a frying pan. Place the beef roast in the slow cooker  with the remaining ingredients except the butter and flour. Cover and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours (high 4 1/2 to 5 hours).
If thick gravy is desired remove the beef pot roast from the cooker and turn the heat to high. Add the butter and flour that have been mixed together and cook until thickened, stirring often.
