Roast Beef


This recipe is made in a crockpot!!! Remember to sear any meat before placing it in a crockpot as we all know, crockpots don't get meat nice and brown and caramelized!!!!

4lbs of any kind of roast beef ( get whatever is on sale)
1/4 cup of worcestershire sauce
Salt
Pepper
Vegetable oil
1 or 2 packets of lipton onion soup mix

Turn your burner onto medium high and pour enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of your skillet.

Generously season the roast with salt and pepper.

Place the roast beef in the skillet (you may have to cut it in half to get it to fit) get a nice sear on all sides. Take the roast out of the skillet and put in crockpot.

Pour the 1/4 cup of worcestershire sauce in the hot pan scrape the drippings. Pour those drippings over the roast.

Combine 3/4 cup of water and the lipton onion soup mix and pour over the roast beef. Cook on high for 4-6 hours or low for 8-10 hours until the meat is tender and falls apart.

To make gravy: Remove the meat from the crockpot and mix some water and 1/2 tbls of flour in a cup.

Turn the crockpot on high and pour the flour/water mixture in the crockpot, stirring with a whisk until blended. Put the lid on the crock until the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.

Put the roast beef back in the crockpot and serv with fresh steamed peas and mashed potatoes.
