Slow Cooker Roast

Posted in Cooking, tagged , , , on April 5, 2014| 3 Comments »

One of the great things about being a member of the Kentucky Food Bloggers Association and the Southern Food Bloggers Association is having contact with other wonderful bloggers.  They are wonderful cooks and writers and I encourage you to visit their blogs as well. 

A Southern Soul is a perfect example.  Donya has some delicious recipes and her site is neat and easy to read.  This slow cooker roast is going to lead into another recipe next week which may be even better than just the roast and the roast is wonderful.

Slow Cooker Roast

2-3 lb. beef roast

1/2  large onion sliced

2 cups beef broth

2 tsp. kosher salt

1 tsp. pepper

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. dried thyme

Let the roast come to room temperature for 30 minutes.  Slice the onion and place in in the bottom of your slow cooker.  Put the roast on top of the onions and season with salt, pepper, garlic & thyme.

Pour the broth around the sides of the roast.  Cook on high for 6 hours or low for 8 hours.

Beef Taco Roast

This recipe got rave reviews from my family when I fixed it for Sunday supper a few weeks ago.  It will definitely be a repeat performer because not only is it delicious, it is a slow cooker main dish which is perfect for a lazy Sunday.  The flavor was out of this world and the meat was so tender I almost couldn’t get it out of the cooker without it falling apart. YUM!

Thanks, Awkward Girl Gets Fit, for this great recipe.

I still can’t photograph meat worth a diddly.  Oh, well, I am still learning.

1 large beef roast

1/2 tsp. ground red pepper

1 tsp. salt (I used kosher.)

Ground black pepper

1 tsp. cumin

4 tsp. chili powder

1 tsp. minced garlic

1 1/2 cups beef broth

Season the roast with salt and pepper.  Combine the rest of the ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.

Put the roast in a slow cooker and pour the stock mixture over it.  Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the roast is tender and almost falling apart.  You can sear the roast before putting it in the cooker if you have time, but I didn’t.  I was running late to get ready for church that morning.  It was still mighty tasty even without searing it.
