Chuck Roast with Cranberry Gravy

It was rather chilly today, which made it a perfect day for another slow cooker recipe!  This is incredibly easy and doesn't really require that many ingredients.  What you'll need are: a 2 1/2 lb chuck roast (or beef brisket); 1/2 tsp salt; 1/4 tsp pepper; 1 (14 oz) can whole cranberry sauce; 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce; 1 medium onion, chopped; and 1 tsp dry mustard.
All you need for a really tasty dinner!
Trim any extra fat off of the roast, rub it with the salt and pepper, and put it in your slow cooker.  Now mix together the rest of the ingredients.
Not really the tastiest looking concoction in the world
Pour it into the slow cooker over the beef.
The "before" picture
Cover and set the cooker to the low setting and leave it alone for 8-10 hours, or until the beef is tender.
The "after" picture
Now just slice up the beef (or just pull it apart--it's super tender), cook up some potatoes and vegetables, serve with the sauce left in the cooker, and you have dinner!
Dinner!
