We found an awesome deal on beef chuck roasts. And things are chaotic around here (as I am sure they are in your world too!), so an easy recipe is a must! When I saw this Golden Crock Pot Roast in Gooseberry Patch’s Weeknight Dinners, I couldn’t wait to try it! Once we tried it, I couldn’t wait to share it with you! Yum!

Ingredients for Golden Crock Pot Roast
- 2-3 lb beef chuck roast

- 1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
How to Make Golden Roast in a Crock Pot

- Place your onion slices on top
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours
- Serve with your gravy over top of your beef
Golden Crock Pot Roast Notes
- If you are looking for a more slice-able roast, you will probably want to start checking the internal temperature of your roast around the 6 hour mark. However, if you are in the mood for something more fork-tender/fall apart, then you will want to let it cook for longer.
- When cooking a delicious roast like this, I highly recommend that you keep your slow cooker on low. Cooking it low and slow is going to give you the delicious tenderness that we all think of when you think of a roast.
- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

Is there an Instant Pot version?
Not yet, but I will add it to the list of recipes to try. Thanks for the idea!
I’d forgotten all about this recipe!! I too started making it back in the 80’s when golden mushroom soup first came on the market. I was a newly-wed and we both worked long hours. I was always looking for new easy recipes that could be close to ready when we got home. I found the original recipe in a Family Circle magazine ad for the “new” golden mushroom soup. It was a bit different but the premise was the same … soup, dry onion soup mix & 1/2 can of water (sometimes even a bay leaf) poured over a roast and cooked to perfection by dinner time. Sometimes I threw in carrots & potatoes as well and had the complete meal waiting. Of course that was also in the days when a tough old chuck roast was reasonably priced. It’s been a long time since I’ve even seen golden mushroom soup on my store shelves where I live. Just found it on Amazon this morning & have 4 cans on its way tomorrow. Thanks again for the reminder. Use your site all the time.
That’s really cool Tillie! I love hearing stories like this! I hope you find lots of recipes to love here!
