SLOW COOKER BEEF ROAST

Sep.posted by Paula 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe

Slow Cooker Beef Roast is a classic, comfort food recipe that is deliciously hearty and flavorful!

This Slow Cooker Beef Roast is delightful. As well, you can make Beef Hoagies with the leftovers. This combination is a great cook once, eat twice strategy that I call Encore Meals. You can check out all my Encore Meals here. It’s also smart planning if you have obligations because it can be put on early in the day. Leftover hoagies can be made for another meal by simply heating up the roast and toasting bread.

Slow Cooker Beef Roast

What is pot roast?

Pot roast is a big, tough beef cut that’s priced cheap. These tough cuts are perfect for slow cooking. You can sear, cover, and cook these cuts slowly in the oven or slow cooker with herbs and veggies until they are fall-apart tender.

What are the best cuts of meat to roast?

When choosing a roast I recommend getting a chuck roast, shoulder steak, rump roast, or bottom round roast. Look for a cut that is well marbled with small pockets of fat not a large ribbon of fat running through the meat.

Roasts are typically made from tough cuts of meat. Cooking them low and slow makes the meat more tender. Let the slow cooker or oven do all the work for you tenderizing these tough cuts of meat.

How to Cook Slow Cooker Beef Roast | Beef Hoagies

It’s simple to make a roast beef in the slow cooker. From start to finish it takes about four hours.

First, you’ll want to sear the meat on the stove-top. I generously salted and peppered the meat before searing, then put it in the slow cooker on low.

It’s especially helpful if you have a meat thermometer that you can leave in the roast and go about your other chores.

Plan for leftovers!

One of the best things about cooking a large roast is you have leftovers for another meal.

  1. For sandwiches on the second night, I reheated the roast along with the gravy in a saucepan.
  2. I toasted hamburger rolls with provolone cheese on them as the meat was reheating.
  3. You can saute onions and peppers for your sandwich or dress it however you prefer.

 

Tools to making this roast:

  1. Slow Cooker
  2. Tongs

 

Finally, Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary based on products used.

    This turned out great. Followed directions for a frozen roast as I forgot to take my 2.6 lb blade roast out of the freezer. Cooked for 50 minutes, took the pressure off, added good sized chunks of potatoes and carrots and cooked for 30 more minutes.
