Doesn't have a name I know of, so call it Chris's roast or what ever you want.

3 lbs of chuck or round roast cut into 2 or 3 inch blocks.
1 large onion quartered
Couple stocks of celery cut into small pieces, use the stock, leafs and all.
Root vegetables you like cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Carrots, Parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, potatoes.
Place onion in bottom, next add the meat, then all the root vegetables except potatoes. (save those for the last 1.5 hours)
Add a can of cream of mushroom soup and a cup or more of red wine.
Salt and pepper to taste.

Add a bit more water if needed. Cook on high for an hour then on low for 7 to 8 hours. Add the potatoes the last 1.5 hours.

Comes out perfect every time. A complete meal in the pot. I have also added green beans and squash but also during the end time.
