Sure, I’d be happy to help you with a slow cooker roast recipe! Here’s a basic recipe for a delicious slow cooker roast:
Ingredients:
- 3-4 pounds of beef roast (such as chuck roast)
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4-5 carrots, peeled and sliced
- 4-5 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
Instructions:
- Season the beef roast with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned. This step adds flavor to the roast, but you can skip it if you’re short on time.
- Place the sliced onion and minced garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Put the seared roast on top of the onions and garlic.
- In a bowl, mix together the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, dried thyme, and dried rosemary.
- Pour the mixture over the roast.
- Add the sliced carrots and potato chunks around the roast.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until the roast is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
- Once cooked, you can remove the roast and vegetables and let the juices rest for a few minutes before slicing the roast.
- Serve the roast slices with the vegetables and drizzle some of the cooking juices over the top.
