I like to brown the meat and the veggies, it gives the gravy more flavor.

It's not absolutely necessary though. Place the meat into the crockpot,

then the veggies; sprinkle on the onion soup mix and pour water over the

top. Cover and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. Once

the meat is done, if you want to thicken the gravy, remove the meat and

veggies from the pot and place them on a serving platter. Mix together 2

tablespoons flour (I like Wondra Flour, it never lumps...no need to mix

with water) and 2-3 tablespoons water to make a paste; whisk the paste

into the hot liquid until thickened. You may want to put the temperature

on HIGH when you make the gravy.

Bad Dad had a really good recipe. I make it like this and sometimes if I want a no fuss gravy I also add a can of cream of mushroom soup to it too.
