Here's how to make my family's favorite pot roast. Her recipe uses a slow cooker to make the pot roast. I use a Crock-Pot, but any slow cooker with various heat settings will work for this recipe.
You can also prepare other meats as you would a pot roast—we like lamb shanks, chicken, pork loin and even eggplant. Find these recipes and more in our guide to pot roast.
