A summer slow cooker pot roast slowly simmers a generous beef roast with hearty potatoes and summer's fresh vegetables in a broth swimming with garlic, onion, thyme, and oregano. Keep cool and let your crock pot do all the hard work!
I love making slow cooker meals in my crock pot during the summer months. Forget turning that oven on and heating up the house every night of the week.
A girl shouldn't have to sweat glisten every time she's in the kitchen cooking you know?
On nights with thunderstorms, whether (ha ha - get it?!?) it's in the middle of a humid muggy summer or a cooler fall night, I always crave comfort foods.
The night that I made this summer pot roast was one of those hot muggy summer nights (ya know, cuz everything after Memorial Day is summer, ermaright?!?).
I love crockpot recipes in the summer.
For one, that slow cooker doesn't heat up your house like your oven does.
And for seconds, the slow cooker gives you more time to do all those fun summer activities and less time stuck in the kitchen.
But let's be honest, this girl loves cooking in the kitchen.

For thirds, you can buy more inexpensive cuts of meat for your roast and it still comes out tender as ever.
And the forth plus... just throw in a few key spices and those summer veggies that are already in your fridge, and you have everything that you need AND know everything that you're putting in that body of yours!
We had potatoes, sweet peppers, yellow squash, and onions in our house, so those veggies accompanied the roast.
This summer slow cooker beef roast also goes well with zucchini, tomatoes, and sugar snap peas too.

- Tasty
- Satisfies that need for comfort foods
