Bacon & Cola Crock Pot Roast



This is a super yummy dish that is super easy to make. I honestly had never used my crock pot before this recipe. Never knew how easy they were to use! I can never find the dry onion soup mix, so I use the dry onion gravy mix instead. I personally also use the mushroom soup, but that is because I cannot stand celery.

Ingredients:

1 (3-4 lb) bottom round beef roast
1 (12 ounce) can cream of celery or mushroom soup (whatever your preference)
½ lb bacon , cooked and crumbled (reserve drippings)
3 -5 tablespoons bacon drippings
1 (1 ½ ounce) package dry onion soup mix
1 (12 ounce) can Cola
1 tbsp corn starch and 1 tbsp water mixed



Directions:

  • Pour 1 can of Cola into your crock pot and set temperature to low.
  • Place your Beef Roast in the crock pot and sprinkle the Dry Onion Soup mix over roast and the cola
  • While cooking the roast on low, fry the bacon to a crisp, crumble it and set aside.
  • Pour the bacon drippings from cooking the bacon and drizzle them over your roast.
  • Spread the bacon crumbles over your roast and dry onion soup mix.
  • Cover roast and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or 4-6 hours on high.
  • One hour before roast is to be served make your gravy.
  • Lift roast out of crock pot and set aside.
  • Add your one can of Cream of Celery soup and hand whisk until blended. For time’s sake I use the electric mixer.
  • Add corn starch and water mix and whisk in to thicken.
  • Place your roast back into the crock pot and finish out your cooking time.
