Ingredients

  • 3 lb Black Angus USDA Choice Beef Bottom Round Roast
  • 2 medium yellow onions thinly sliced
  • 4-5 whole large carrots chopped
  • 1 bag medley potatoes 24 oz, halved or quartered
  • 10 Little Salad Bar Fresh Peeled Garlic Cloves
  • 1/2 cup Simply Nature Organic Beef Bone Broth
  • Fresh cracked salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Stonemill Italian Seasoning
  • 1 packet Stonemill Brown Gravy mix

Instructions

  • Spray inside of slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Spread sliced onions and garlic cloves across the bottom of the slow cooker. Next, add roast on top. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spread chopped potatoes and carrots around the roast. Add salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to taste, and pour beef broth on top.
  • Place lid on slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8, or high for 3-4 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. I recommend cooking low and slow if you have the time.
  • Once it has reached the appropriate temperature, remove about 1/4 cup of the juices from the slow cooker to make your brown gravy. Follow instructions on the packet.
  • Next, scoop vegetables into a bowl so you can shred or slice the roast. Once this is done, add vegetables back to the slow cooker, and serve.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
