How to Make All I Want Is Meat And Potatoes Sirloin
- Pat the sirloin roast dry with paper towels. Season generously with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat.
- Add the sirloin roast and brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the browned roast to a 5-7 quart slow cooker.
- Add the chopped onion and thyme to the same skillet and sauté until the onions begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer the onion mixture to the slow cooker.
- Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce to the slow cooker, pouring it around the meat. Add the cubed potatoes, ensuring they are mostly submerged in the liquid.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 4-5 hours or on low for 8-9 hours, or until the sirloin is fork-tender.
- Remove the meat and potatoes from the slow cooker and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- While the meat rests, skim off any excess fat from the surface of the cooking liquid in the slow cooker.
- (Optional) Transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids for a smoother sauce.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the butter and flour to create a roux.
- Bring the strained cooking liquid to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in the butter-flour mixture, a spoonful at a time, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding more. Continue simmering until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Slice the rested sirloin roast against the grain.
- Serve the sliced sirloin, potatoes, and onions generously drizzled with the delicious gravy.
