Hi Jen! Delicious!!!! We had a family dinner so I was feeding 7 people, I doubled the recipe and added about 4 cups of organic beef broth. And to the 3/4 of water I added 1 1/2 tbsps of arrowroot pwd to the last hour of cooking to thicken the sauce. I cooked on high for 4 hours and on low for the last 1 hour or so. I also added dried parsley because I love parsley lol. I used a 4lb sirloin tip roast that I cup up in 5 pieces. The meat was buttery tender and just fell apart. I served with a salad and homemade sourdough bread. It was a hit!! Hubby loved it! There was even enough leftover for my husband and I to have a bowl for next nights supper. Thank you for sharing your recipe. A keeper forever recipe!

So I made the roast and it came out great!! No one else has tasted it yet but I think it’s quite yummy. I went to Costco and the smallest Chuck roast I could get was 4.92 lbs. so I added extra veggies and potatoes as well as extra spices and liquid. I just kinda guessed. I always do a recipe the first time exactly but next time I will not dice the potatoes or slice the carrots next time and make them bigger pieces for sure. I will also add some garlic! Maybe when I sear the meat I could have slices of garlic in the pan for that extra flavor. This was my first Pinterest recipe so I’m excited. I haven’t cooked like this in years, I forgot I could do it.

Just wondering if anyone tried using an Instant Pot? This seems like a recipe that might work well in one.

In reply to Dee. Hi Dee! It feeds 4-6 people depending on how big of servings they eat. I hope this helps! It's one of my favorite easy dinners so I hope you'll give it a try!

In reply to Amy. I had the same problem so I put the vegetables in half way through the cooking process (under the roast of course), this kept the vegetables from turning to mush. Thank you

In reply to Lauren. Just use beef broth instead of water and granules. I hope this helps!

If I can’t get the beef bouillon granules what can I substitute?

Thanks!

I used one cup of beef broth with the basil and one cup of water for liquid and it cooked quite high in liquid and then on the last hour drained most of the liquid out to use to make a gravy and left a little liquid in the bottom to cook one more hour.. it turned out so moist .. perfect roast.. also used quarter potatoes and chunks of carrot . Onion on the bottom and veggies on top of the roast. Wonderful.

Made it exactly as written and it was perfect. The meat was tender and the veggies and broth delicious. We loved it!

In reply to Laurie. Definitely!! Baby carrots work in place of the chopped carrots for sure.

In reply to Beth. It shouldn't matter as long as there's liquid surrounding it and the lid on the crock pot is closed! I hope you enjoy it! It's my favorite roast recipe!

Does it matter if the liquid is not up to or covering the meat in the crockpot?
