Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 2- pound bottom round roast
  • 2 small or one large onion sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled and smashed
  • 2 tablespoons Homemade Garlic and Herb Seasoning
  • 1 cup beef bone broth
  • 2 tablespoons flour or cornstarch

Instructions

  • Add roast to slow cooker and nestle onion slices and garlic around it
  • Press herb and garlic seasoning into the top of the roast
  • Carefully pour beef broth around the roast
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or high for 3-4 hours
  • Remove, let rest for 30 minutes, then slice to serve
  • Optional: To make gravy to serve with the roast, strain the juices into a pan and whisk in a slurry using flour or cornstarch. Continue to whisk the simmering liquid until it thickens. Remove from heat.
