No Fuss Sunday Slow-Cooker Balsamic Pot Roast
Ingredients
1 2-2 ½ Lb. Boneless Beef Chuck Roast
1 Large Onion – Roughly chopped
1 Cup Low Sodium Beef Broth
3 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tbsp. Tomato Paste
2 Tbsp. Quick Cooking Tapioca
3 Large Garlic Cloves-Minced
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning- Store bought or Homemade
Salt and Pepper to taste
Preparation
1
Place onions in slow cooker. (I used half of a red onion and half of white because I had them and they needed to be used)
2
Place roast on top of onions.
3
Season meat with salt and pepper.
4
In a small bowl whisk together broth, vinegar, tomato paste, tapioca, garlic and Italian seasoning.
5
Pour mixture over meat.
6
Set cooker on low and cook for 8-10 hours. If you’re short on time set cooker to high and cook 4-5 hours.
7
Let cook without disturbing or checking on it; Every time you open the lid it lets all that precious hot air out. I was bummed to come home and find that my lid somehow and fallen in and created a constant leak. But it all worked out just fine in the end.
8
Once roast is cooked and is tender to the point of falling apart transfer to serving dish.
9
Use juice and onions in crockpot as gravy. Transfer liquid to a gravy boat.
10
Plate it up…

ENJOY!!!
