Crockpot Roast with Potatoes and Carrots Tips
For firmer potatoes, add them halfway through the cooking time instead of at the start. Do not use russet potatoes.Sear the roast first, brown the onions, and deglaze the pan with red wine before adding ingredients to the crockpot. This adds so much flavor!
How Long to Cook Roast Beef in Crock Pot
We cook our crockpot roast for 9 hours over low heat. You can cook yours anywhere from 8-10 hours until it’s fork-tender to your liking.
How to Thicken Roast Beef Gravy
