Slow Cooker Roast Beef

By [e-mail]

This is a great recipe! I got it from Kelly Winters of Primally Inspired. You can prep all the ingredients in advance and freeze it, then take it out and put it in the crockpot/slow cooker when you are going to make it. The roast turns out so tender and very flavorful! This is so easy I usually just prep it right before making it or the night before. Made 10/13 & 12/13. Chuck really liked it served over rice. There is a lot of broth left. You can use this broth to cook rice or pasta, for any leftover meat you have to make a tasty second meal.

Ingredients

• 1 roast (I used a sirloin tip roast, but any type roast will work)
• 3 cups beef or chicken stock
• 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 onions, diced
• 16 ounces mushrooms, roughly chopped
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 t garlic powder
• 1 t onion powder
• 1 t paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

If freezing: place everything in freezer safe container and freeze until ready to use.

To cook: place (thawed or frozen) everything in slow cooker and cook on low 6-8 hours. (I cooked mine closer to 10 hours and that was with my roast partially frozen and everything else thawed.)
