Coca Cola Beef Chuck Slow Cooker
This easy dump-and-go Amish Chuck Roast recipe comes from our neighbors, who make it a regular post-church meal on Sunday afternoons. The one-pot supper is comfort food at its finest, and it works perfectly in a pressure cooker, in a slow cooker, or in an oven!
It doesn't get much easier than a meal that you can "set and forget!"
This particular chuck roast recipe comes from our neighbors, who hunt, grow, and bake a lot of their own food. Even better? They share a lot of their homegrown food with us!
That means that in the summer I regularly receive bags of garden fresh veggies over the fence, and in the winter we're often treated to freshly baked rolls or bread.
I've been making Mrs. Peachey's Stuffed Peppersfor years, so when Mr. Peachey shared this recipe with Keith last year, I instantly knew that I would give it a try.
Mr. Peachey told Keith about their favorite roast recipe when he gave Keith one of his venison roasts. While I'm not big on venison, I knew that it would work equally well with a beef roast (and I was right)!
What is a chuck roast?
Also called a "Chuck Eye Roast," "Chuck Pot Roast" or "Chuck Roll Roast," this cut of beef comes from the front portion of the animal. It is a classic pot roast cut, as it becomes moist and tender when braised.
How do you tenderize a chuck roast?
The best way to turn this tough cut of beef into a tender, juicy dish is by cooking it low and slow. That means that it does best at a low temperature for a long time (unlike more tender cuts, such as filet mignon, which are best when quickly grilled or seared).
How to make an Amish Chuck Roast recipe:
This chuck roast recipe is one of those gems that's SO EASY you don't even have to write it down!
Ingredients for Amish Chuck Roast:
- A boneless beef chuck roast
- A packet of Lipton onion soup mix and seasoning
- Coca Cola
- Onion, potatoes and carrots
I used my Instant Pot for the meat that you see here, and it worked incredibly well. Such tender, juicy, beef that literally melts in your mouth.
First, brown the chuck roast on both sides to give it some great color and flavor. Meanwhile, toss the veggies with some olive oil and the onion soup mix seasoning.
Place the roast and the vegetables in the Instant Pot, slow cooker, or Dutch oven. Pour Coke over top, close the lid, and cook for about 70 minutes on "HIGH" pressure. In a Crock Pot, you can let the roast cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours.
How long do you cook a roast at 350 degrees?
If you prefer an oven baked chuck roast recipe, this works as well! Follow the same instructions as above, and cook the beef and vegetables in a Dutch oven at 350 degrees F for 2-3 hours. The roast is done when it's fall-apart tender!
Pick your favorite cooking method and go with it!
What to serve with Amish Chuck Roast:
Since you have potatoes, carrots and beef all in one pot, you really don't need any additional sides. That said, here are a few nice options that pair well with the pot roast:
- A simple green salad dressed in Buttermilk Dressing
- Perfect Roasted Asparagus
- Southern Collard Greens
- Aunt Bee's 3-Ingredient Buttermilk Biscuits
- Fried Cabbage with Apples and Onion
Whether you serve it for a post-church meal on Sunday afternoon (like the Peacheys do), or enjoy it on a cold weeknight (like us), this is comfort food that will make you feel cozy, nourished, and satisfied!
