    How to

    beef roast in crockpot with seasoning

    Place your beef roast in your crockpot. In a small bowl mix up the seasonings and sprinkle half of them on your beef roast and rub it in. Pour 1 cup of beef broth/stock around the roast.

    Now toss in the veggies around the roast. I used onions, carrots, and potatoes. Top with the rest of the seasoning. Cover and cook for 8 hours on low or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.

    When it is done you can shred the beef, or remove it and cut it up to serve with the potatoes and veggies. The cooking liquid makes a great au jus!

    Brown First?

    A question that is asked a lot is, "Do you have to brown a roast before putting it in the crockpot?" The short answer is no you don't. It really depends on the result you are looking for. If you intend to shred your beef browning first isn't necessary.

    If you are looking to slice your beef roast when it is finished they you may want to brown it in a skillet before slow cooking. This will give the outside of your roast a better texture.

    Cut of Beef

    What kind of beef roast is best for crock pot?

    Honestly any! Go with whatever is on sale. Look for chuck roast, shoulder steak, boneless chuck roast, chuck shoulder pot roast, chuck seven-bone pot roast, or beef chuck arm. Any of those will make a great slow cooker beef roast.

    Tips

    Don't complicate this recipe. It is simple, but works amazingly.

    Cook Low or High?

    Cooking on low for 8 hours helps create a tender, flavorful roast. You can cook it on high for 4 hours, however you may end up with a little less tender roast. Cooking on high is better if you intend to slice your roast.

    Switch it up

    Change up the veggies, or some of the spices used to make this perfect for your family. You can even changed the beef broth for a red wine to make a Beef Bourguignon type of meal

    Gluten Free

    This slow cooker beef roast meal is gluten free. Just double check your beef broth for hidden gluten.

    Serving

    I love this because it is a complete meal. Just serve with some warm crusty bread (like this homemade French bread) and a side salad! YUM!
