Cranberry Roast in Crock-Pot

Crock-Pot Cranberry Roast

1 roast (3-5 pounds)

1 pkg onion soup mix

1 can cranberry sauce (canned, or I make whole-berry sauce from cranberries that I freeze each November.)

 

Place roast in slow cooker and sprinkle onion soup mix on top.  Spread the cranberry sauce over it all.  Cook on low for 10-12 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.

After roast in done, remove it from  the slow cooker and slice or shred.  Stir 2 T. flour into juices in the crock-pot and turn the temperature to high.  Cook and stir for 5-10 minutes, until you have a nice gravy.

I always make my cranberry sauce fresh and make a double batch so I can put 1/2 on the roast and serve 1/2 as a side dish.

Shopping List:

• 1 roast (3-5 pounds)
