For an even richer flavor, consider browning the beef roast in a skillet with a little oil before placing it in the slow cooker. This adds a wonderful depth of flavor. If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Feel free to add other vegetables to the slow cooker along with the roast, such as carrots, potatoes, or celery. Just be sure to cut them into evenly sized pieces so they cook properly. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.

Mar 5, 2024The gravy was a little too thick for my liking, but that was easily fixed by adding a bit of beef broth. Overall, a fantastic recipe!
