Beef Pot Roast

Beef Pot Roast

This recipe produces a super tender, fall apart, juicy beef pot roast just like dad use to make. Made easy using a crock-pot to slow cook your beef roast until cooked to perfection. Add even more flavor by marinating your beef before cooking. Place it in an air tight container or Zip Lock bag with your marinade, and let it sit for 2 hours or over night. Don't forget to sear the roast before placing it in the crock pot to maximize flavor and retain moisture. Use up all those delicious cooking liquids and make a scrumptious gravy to go on top. We enjoy this roast with a sided of my baked mashed potatoes. (see link for recipe, https://www.sweetandsavoury.ca/post/the-best-mashed-potatoes )
