I snagged a lovely roast on sale at the store and was craving a tender \"Sunday\" roast beef. You know the kind that cooks in a 225-250 degree oven for HOURS to tender juicy perfection. Unfortunately,\u00a0it was 100 plus degrees outside. And I did not want to turn on the oven.<\/p>\n

Hey wait! How hot does a slow cooker get? 190 degrees on low, 250 degrees on high. BINGO!<\/p>\n

\"Beef<\/p>\n

<\/center>Easy and delicious! I even pulled out the meat slicer to get paper thin slices for \"au jus\" sandwiches a second night.<\/p>\n

Time for some warnings. In my 6 quart slow cooker with a 2.5 pound roast and about 2 pounds of vegetables it took a little over 2 hours on high. BUT, all slow cookers are different. I really recommend reading that little booklet that came with yours that you probably threw away. If that's the case check the manufacturer's website, they probably have it.<\/p>\n

Luckily mine came with a temperature probe, which I truthfully never thought I'd use when I bought it. I am now a convert! I stuck it into my roast and let the slow cooker do the calculating for me. I just made sure to time it so I'd have an extra 30 minutes in case it took longer than my guesstimate.<\/p>\n

If you are interested, this is the slow cooker I have and love<\/a> (affiliate link, I may receive commission for any purchases through the link at no cost to you).<\/p>\n
