I've been making my roast like this for years only I add water to mine. (About one cup) The juice is a nice addition to rice or potatos. It isn't always easy to pick out a nice roast, so adding the water can help a tough roast be more tender. (New potatos from a can, corn, carrots, and green beans are nice in this too. Just add to the crock pot at least 1 to 2 hours before serving. )

I've been doing cross rib roasts in the crockpot like this for ages. I don't even bother adding the onion. I often add some dry spices (garlic, oregano etc) to the soup mix then sprinkle over the roast. It is amazing how much and how flavourful a gravy this produces. I'm glad you posted this for others. I thought it was too simple to do. Good for you Carrie.
