I’ve been enjoying the crock pot lately; it’s just so easy to use. Simply brown the meat, throw it in the crock pot with some liquid and leave it alone all day.

Tonight we had roast from a local grass-fed beef supplier. Roast beef isn’t my favorite piece of meat but I still find it edible if it’s moist and flavorful. Here’s tonight’s recipe:

Crock pot roast beef

Roast beef with the cooking juices

Ingredients:

• 8 oz tomato sauce (get the one with no sugar added, which the one in the picture did happen to have)
• 3 cloves of garlic, roughly chopped
• 1/2 onion, sliced
• Garlic powder
• Onion Powder
• Pepper and salt to taste
• 1 cup water

Don't use this sauce - it has sugar in it

Directions:

• Coat meat in dry seasonings and brown in a pan on both sides
• Place meat in crock pot with tomato sauce, water, onion, and garlic
• Cook on high for 4 hours and low for at least 2 hours – or low for 8 hours
• Turn over once or twice throughout the span of the cooking
• Meat will be fork tender and juices will start to thicken
• I like it served with lots of juice
