🧂 Ingredients

1 Top or Bottom Round Roast

for us it depends on what’s on sale about a pound fits into our crock pot. Use what will fit in yours
1 cup Beef broth

see directions (you might need a bit more)
1 tablespoon garlic

crushed and minced
1 tablespoon steak seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

1 Put the oil in a pan and turn the heat to medium-high. Sprinkle the beef with
your choice of steak seasoning and garlic. Sear each side.

Put the beef in the crockpot and pour beef broth just 2/3 of the way over the
beef. (This will depend on the size of your crockpot.)

Cook on medium for up to eight hours, if you like your beef to fall apart. Cook
for six hours if you like it to stay together. (All of these times vary
depending on your specific crockpot.)

We often freeze the beef after searing to make a quick and easy toss in the
crockpot meal. We’ve had luck adding the beef to the crockpot still frozen and
pouring the beef broth in. When we start frozen, we cook it on high for about
six hours and turn it to low when we get back from work. Serve with broth, which
you can thicken with cornstarch, arrowroot or cheese.
