Take chuck roast and season with salt and pepper to taste. Brown on all sides in large skillet over high heat. Place in Crock-pot, add the soup mix, water, carrots, onion, potatoes and celery. Cover and cook on low setting for 8-10 hours.
When you take out roast, mix some flour and water...stir into Crock-pot for a rustic gravy. I just eyeball it - start with 1/3 cup of flour and enough cold water to make a non-lumpy paste and whisk into the liquids - yum!
