I rub down my roast with dry onion soup mix. Stick in the crockpot and add cream of mushroom and some water. Then I add onions, potatoes and carrots.

if you'd like to try something different I like to add a couple pounds stew beef, 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/2 cup red wine, 1 onion chopped and 2 cloves garlic minced to a crock pot, cook on high for 4-5 hours. I like to serve this with egg noodles or rice and a salad and a side veggie. It's really yummy and a little different for a change.
