I like to buy a sirloin tip beef roast and slice onions and put about 1/2 of the onion in the bottom of the crockpot. Then I put in my roast and pour some dale's marinade seasoning over it. Cover the bottom with dale's. Then add the other half of onion sliced on top. Cook for 8 hours on high. I sometimes add potatoes and carrots but actually like to do them in the microwave when I get home from work. I just take some of the juice from the crockpot and put it over my cut-up potatoes and carrots and microwave until done. Makes a great meal! Good luck!

My husband makes the best roast I've ever had in my entire life.

All you need is a chuck roast, Tony Chachere's, fresh garlic, water, cooking oil, and Kitchen Bouquet Browning & Seasoning Sauce.

We take the garlic and cut it into slivers. Cut long slits into the roast (as many as you want - I like lots of it) and stuff the garlic slivers into it.

Rub the whole roast with Tony's. Heat up some cooking oil (about 1/4" of oil in the pan) and brown all sides of the roast, approximately five minutes on each side, not forgetting the ends. Use heavy meat forks to suspend it. It usually looks very, very dark on all sides. Take out roast and rest on a platter. Drain most of cooking oil and keep drippings in pan.

Put roast back into pan, and cover roast with water. Keep lid on pot and turn roast over after about one hour. Cook other side for another hour, or until done.

Once roast is done, we take it out, slice it and set it in a pan and cover it with juice to keep it moist. I then set it in my warming drawer.

Take the juice in the pan and add enough flour/water mixture to thicken it to your tastes. Add Kitchen Bouquet for flavor/color to your tastes and then you have your gravy.

I always make cabbage and rice and DH makes his family's secret creamy potato salad.

Gosh, a roast sounds good right now!

3 lb boneless chuck roast (looks like a really thick cut of steak)
salt
pepper
bay leaf crumbled
olive oil to coat pan
1 large chopped onion
2 minced garlic cloves
1 C wine
1 can beef broth

Rub the roast with salt, pepper and bay leaf. In large pot, brown the roast in olive oil. Remove from pot. Add to pot the onion and garlic and cook until onions are clear. Add wine and deglaze bottom of pot. Add beef broth and place roast back in pot. Reduce heat to low and cover. Turn every half hour. I usually cook it for at least 3 hours. You can add other vegetables.

I cook my roasts for about 4-6 hours at 250° and they are so tender they literally fall apart taking them out of the pan. I season them first and then cook. NUMMY!
