Categories Roast Beef

Time 8h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 (3 lb) beef roast
3 slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces (I use a scissor to save time)
8 garlic cloves, 6 quartered, 2 mashed
1 -2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon smoky paprika
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 teaspoon oregano, to taste
1/2 teaspoon thyme, to taste
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Steps:

Using a sharp, thin knife (like a boning knife), create deep holes in the meat, inserting the quartered pieces of garlic and bacon.
Using a mortar and pestle, mash garlic and salt first, then add paprika, parsley, olive oil and vinegar.
Rub this mixture all over the roast.
Put the roast into the crockpot and cook on low 7-10 hours, or until done.
Note: if you like, you can also add 1/2 glass red wine about 1 hour before the roast is done.
You can substitute a pork sirloin roast for the beef too, mmmmm.

Tips:

Choosing the Right Cut of Meat: Opt for a chuck roast or a rump roast for a tender and flavorful dish. These cuts are well-suited for slow cooking and will become fall-apart tender in the crock pot.
Seasoning the Meat: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Rub the meat with a blend of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper before searing. This will infuse the meat with flavor and create a delicious crust.
Searing the Meat: Searing the meat before adding it to the crock pot is an important step that adds flavor and helps to lock in the juices. Sear the meat in a hot skillet until browned on all sides.
Adding Vegetables: Vegetables add flavor and nutrition to the roast. Common vegetables used in crock pot roasts include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Feel free to add your favorite vegetables or experiment with different combinations.
Using Beef Broth or Stock: Beef broth or stock adds moisture and flavor to the roast. You can use store-bought or homemade broth or stock. If using store-bought, choose a low-sodium option to control the saltiness of the dish.
Cooking Time: The cooking time for a crock pot roast will vary depending on the size and type of meat. Generally, a 3- to 4-pound roast will take 8 to 10 hours on low or 4 to 6 hours on high. Check the internal temperature of the meat with a meat thermometer to ensure it has reached a safe minimum internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Conclusion:

Crock pot roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and packed with flavor. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a tender and delicious roast that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give crock pot roast a try. You won't be disappointed!
