EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The longer meat cooks in the slow cooker, the more tender it becomes. At the minimum cooking time, meat is easy to cut. At the maximum time, it’s perfect for shredding.

Round out this meal with corn muffins and a mixed-greens salad tossed with a fruity vinaigrette.

Save the gravy and any leftover beef for French Dip sandwiches. Layer the beef onto hoagie buns, and dip into the gravy.

I don't know why this only has three stars, because it is amazing! I usually make a roast in the slow cooker the same way, but I decided to try some new roast recipes. I never brown my roasts or anything before I put them in, and I used bacon you can cook in the microwave in 25 sec. anyway, so it worked out. I let it cook for 8 hours on high (that's what I usually cook roasts at) and it was fine. Made with boiled potatoes and boiled fresh green beans and some buttered bread. SO good.
