I just made this last night. It took 5 minutes to brown the meat in the morning, then I tossed it in the slow cooker with the onions, celery, and the bloody mary sauce. It was amazing. I put it over pasta, but I imagine you could put it over the potatoes in the recipe, rice, or just eat it the way it is. |

Made this the other day and it was very simple and quite good. I did brown the meat before putting it in the slow cooker.

Mine is delicious:
Surefire method - can't go wrong 1 cup ketchup 1 Tbs Worcestershire sauce 1 Large onion 3 lbs. beef roast red potatoes - cut up carrots - peeled and cut up Slice the onion. Line the bottom of the slow cooker with the onion slices. Mix the ketchup and worcestershire sauce. Pour 1/2 of the mix over the onions. Lay the roast in the slow cooker. Pour the rest of the sauce on top. Cook on high for 3 hours. Flip the roast over, and put the potatoes and carrots on top. Cook on high for another 3 hours. It will seem for a long time like there is not enough fluid in the pot but by the time it's done, there will be a beautiful rich beef sauce covering everything including the potatoes. |
do you sear it first? |

This is a good one from Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook: http://healthylivinginthecity.com/2012/11/22/project-cookbook-our-best-pot-roast-with-roots/
In the same cookbook there's a recipe for beef brisket that uses onion soup mix, beer, and chili sauce, and a few other things. Sounds horrifying, but is absolutely AMAZING. YOu can make it with chuck roast or any other pot roast rather than brisket. Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook is one of the best slow cooker cookbooks I've found. |
No, I don't usually bother. When it's all done, you can't really tell if it's seared or not. It's very tasty and fall-apart tender. |
