ANOTHER BEEF SLOW COOKER POT ROAST -- HUBBY & KIDS FAVORITE



Another Beef Slow Cooker Pot Roast -- Hubby & Kids Favorite image

This recipe does not use any processed items -like soups, mixes... The family loves this-especially the brown potatoes that cook with the meat-the measurements are approximate....Potatoes used are about the size of a small lime-if you use larger ones, the cut in half. I like yukon gold poatoes for this. If you see that the top of the roast is drying out while cooking tehn baste.
