Make the gravy
Remove the roast and veggies to a serving platter and cover to keep warm. Skim fat from the cooking liquid if necessary. Mix cornstarch with a little cold water to make a slurry, then stir into the slow cooker liquid. Turn heat to high and cook until the gravy thickens (about 5 minutes).
Serve
Slice or shred the pot roast and ladle gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Tips for the Best Pot Roast
Choose a well-marbled chuck roast—it breaks down beautifully in slow cooking.
Don’t skip the searing step; it adds rich flavor and color.
If you don’t have fresh herbs, dried rosemary and thyme work fine (use about 1 teaspoon each).
Serve with creamy mashed potatoes, buttered noodles, or crusty bread to soak up every last bit of gravy.
