Good Ole' Crockpot Sunday Roast with a twist!

1 envelope of dried onion soup
4 beef bouillon cubes
1 onion
1 jalapeno
1 clove of garlic
1 TBLSP of olive oil
5 potatoes chopped
5 carrots chopped
3 pound chuck roast (the best in my book)

Season roast on all sides. I love Mrs. dash, pepper, chili pepper, fresh herbs, and I insert garlic cloves into the roast itself. In separate pan heat with light olive oil. Sear roast on all sides and place in crock pot. Add beef bullion in crock pot. (this will make delicious gravy) In same pan add a little more olive oil. Roughly chop up onions, jalapeno, and garlic. Put 1 tablespoon butter into pan, add onions, jalapenos. Let saute on low until caramelized. Add garlic towards the end of carmilization. Take and put over the roast in crock pot. Sprinkle with 1/2 package of onion soup. Cook for 5 hours and add potatoes and carrots, sprinkle with the rest of the onion soup and cook for 3 hours. After done take out all veggies and roast. Pour juice into pan and add corn starch to make the best gravy ever.
