Ingredients: ½ cup flour; 14 ounces reduced-sodium beef broth; 1 tablespoon tomato paste; ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves; 1 teaspoon salt (more or less to taste); ½ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground; 2 12-3 lbs boneless beef roast (I use outside round); 8 ounces baby carrots (or regular carrots cut to approximate baby carrots); 2 -4 celery ribs, cut in 2 inch lengths (optional); 1 cup onion, diced; 1 lb baby potatoes, scrubbed (or regular potatoes quartered)

Servings: persons

½ cup flour
14 ounces reduced-sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon salt (more or less to taste)
½ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
2 12-3 lbs boneless beef roast (I use outside round)
8 ounces baby carrots (or regular carrots cut to approximate baby carrots)
2 -4 celery ribs, cut in 2 inch lengths (optional)
1 cup onion, diced
1 lb baby potatoes, scrubbed (or regular potatoes quartered)

1
Spray your crock with cooking spray (4-6 quart crockpot).
2
In a medium bowl gradually whisk broth into flour, a bit at a time to prevent lumps.
3
Whisk in tomato paste, thyme, salt and pepper.
4
Place beef roast in center of crock and arrange vegetables around it.
5
Pour the gravy mixture over the beef and vegetables.
6
Cover and Cook on low 8-9 hours, or on high 4-5 hours, or until meat is tender.
7
Note: I have found that sometimes a little of the flour mixture over-thickens at the bottom edge of the crock.
8
It isn't difficult to clean up later but if you want to prevent this you could try running a spatula around the edges right to the bottom once the liquid starts bubbling.
