Packet Slow Cooker Pot Roast

1. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 7-8 hours. The slow cooking process will break down the fibers in the beef, making it tender and easy to shred. You’ll know the roast is done when it’s fork-tender and shreds easily.
2. Be sure to check the roast towards the end of cooking to ensure it’s cooked to your desired level of tenderness. If necessary, you can cook it a little longer for an even more tender roast.

Shred and Serve

1. Once the roast is fully cooked and tender, remove it from the slow cooker. Use two forks to shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. The meat should be so tender that it falls apart easily.
2. Serve the shredded pot roast with the potatoes, carrots, and the savory gravy from the slow cooker. Spoon some of the flavorful juices over the meat and vegetables for added moisture and richness.
