For an even richer flavor, consider browning the pot roast in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker. This adds a delicious depth of flavor. Feel free to customize the vegetables according to your preference and what's in season. Add turnips, parsnips, or sweet potatoes for a delightful twist. If the gravy is too thin at the end of the cooking time, remove the roast and vegetables. Then, whisk together 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker, and cook on High for 15-20 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
