Rich Braised Chuck Pot Roast In The Crock Pot

• 4 lbs chuck roast
• 4 tablespoons creole seasoning
• 1/2 cup bacon grease
• 1 cup dry red wine
• 14 ounces diced tomatoes, I like Hunt's brand
• 1 cup beef stock, homemade preferred
• 2 large onions, sliced
• 4 large carrots, cut into 3-inch chunks
• 4 garlic cloves, cut in halves
• 4 red potatoes, quartered
• 4 celery ribs, sliced

1. Massage your roast with the seasonings.
2. Heat a cast iron skillet, add the bacon grease and get that smoky hot.
3. Sear the roast on all sides.
4. Add the wine, diced tomatoes with the liquid from the can, and beef stock to the crock pot along with the roast.
5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
6. Remove roast and place in a covered dish on the side.
7. Add all the vegetables to the crock pot, cover and cook on high 1.5 hours, or until done to your likeness.
8. Slice the roast and serve with all the vegetables and sauce.
