This Dilled Pot Roast for Sunday dinner is cooked in a slow cooker all day and guaranteed to be fork-tender at mealtime. The gravy with sour cream and dill is a perfect drizzle for the roast. The flavor is devine! I am happy to share this recipe with my JAP friends. Bon Appetit! Photos are my own. Recipe adapted from my crockpot cookbook by Cusinart .

How To Make bonnie's pot roast with dill

  • 1
    Combine the flour with the salt and pepper and coat the beef. In a medium skillet, brown the coated beef until it has a nice sear on all sides. Remove to platter, set aside to cool. Once cool, rub the Dijon mustard evenly on all sides of the beef.
  • 2
    Place the vegetables in the slowcooker on the bottom and the mustard-coated meat on top. Pour in stock and vinegar around sides not over meat. Cook on Low 10 to 12 hours.
  • 3
    Remove beef to a cutting board.
  • 4
    Cut the meat into thin slices.
  • 5
    Remove vegetables to a serving bowl.
  • 6
    Make the gravy. Strain the cooking juices from the slow cooker into a 2 3/4 quart saucepan. Add flour, mustard and dill; stir over medium heat until sauce comes to a boil and thickens. Remove from heat, cool for a minute, add the sour cream. Taste to see if it needs salt.
