Preparation:
Preparation Time: 8:00 * Use any cut of beef
roast desired.
1. Cut beef roast into serving-sized portions. Use more beef if you
need more than 6 servings. Brown beef in a bit of vegetable oil, although
you can skip this step if rushed for time.
2. Slice onion and separate into rings. Dice the peeled carrots, dice
the celery and slice the peppers into thin strips or circles. Place these
into bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle the beef pieces with fresh ground black
pepper, minced garlic and the onion soup mix. Place on top of the
vegetables.
3. Mix the steak sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl with
about 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup tomato juice. Pour this over the meat.
4. Turn the crockpot to high for 30 minutes, or, if you're in a hurry,
skip this step. Turn to low, cover and cook for 7-9 hours.
* Keep the crockpot covered as much as possible throughout cooking time. A
crockpot can be used to cook this type of meal for a varied amount of time,
depending on your schedule. It is not important that you take the meat and
vegetables out at a specific amount of time. One or two hours either way
usually makes no difference.
When ready to serve, dip meat and vegetables out of pot with a slotted
spoon. Use the liquid as is or turn crockpot to high and thicken liquid
with a little flour or cornstarc |
