Slow Cooker Easy Pot Roast

I have been "craving" a good ole' Pot Roast in the crock pot for a couple of weeks now so I finally decided to buy the ingredients and make one today!   I have to admit that I have tried 10+ different pot roast recipes and no matter how many steps or what ingredients are called for, they always taste the exact same and leave me wanting for "more".  When assembling the roast this morning, I didn't use a recipe- I just threw some things in the crock pot and let it cook and the hubs and my parents all gave the finished product their approval and said it was delicious!  Of course... I had to share what I did because it was super simple!  Enjoy!
