From bottom to top -
A couple of cut up potatoes.
One chopped onion.
3 lb beef roast.
One envelope dry onion soup mix
One can cream of mushroom soup.

Cook on low for about 8 hours.

Where is the moisture coming from>? Cream of mushroom is thick and the onion soup mix would absorb most of the moisture. You don't put any water or broth?

Like I said, I was just going from memory. Looks like that recipe does add some water and doesn't use the dry soup mix. Sounds like a good one to try.

You really don't need much moisture though. You don't want to boil the meat and the lid keeps all the natural juices from the meat from escaping.

we made ribs in the crockpot last week.

We got 2.5 lbs of ribs put them on low in the crockpot for 7hours. then drained the juice and put in some BBQ sauce and put it on high for about an hour.

It is great! hmm yumm now im hungry

 

I have books of crock pot recipies.

One of my favorite is Porkchops.

2-4 pork chops. Center cut taste the best usually.
1/2 c flour
1 T salt
1 1/2 tsp dry mustard powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 can condensed chicken with rice soup.

Mix dry ingredients
Dredge porkchops in dry mix.
heat cooking oil in skiillet, brown the chops.
put the chops in the crock pot.
then take soup and pour into pan when hot
let the pan glaze then pour contents and scrape into crock pot on top of chops.

Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
or high for 4 or so.

I personally like to take a thick slice of onion, approx. 1 - 2 inches thick on top of each chop before you pour the glazed soup over it.
