Instructions

    • 1

      Determine how long the roast will be cooking. If the roast will be cooking longer than 8 hours, you may opt to use a frozen roast. As it thaws in the slow cooker, the roast will soak up the moisture which results in a moister roast (kind of a no brainer, huh? )

      Place roast in slow cooker. Pour water over. Sprinkle contents of onion soup mix over. Onion soup mix works to tenderize and makes it an unbeatable flavor. Add chopped veggies if desired (potatoes, carrots, celery, onions etc)

      IF MEAT IS FROZEN: turn cooker on high for 4-5 hours. After switch to low for an additional 4-5 hours. IF MEAT IS THAWED: turn cooker on low for its entirety.

Tips & Warnings

  • Refrain from lifting the lid. It takes 30 minutes for a slow cooker to regain what it loses ever time you lift the lid

  • However, if meat looks like it is getting dry lift lid ONCE and spoon water mixture over it.

  • Your family may expect you to cook like this all of the time!

    Your article title pulled me in with that "succulent" adjective. This sounds easy enough for even me, and if it happens to turn out "succulent" then all the better..thank you! :-)
