How to Make Herbed Beef Roast
- If beef roast comes in netting or is tied, leave it on.
- Spray a 12-inch skillet with cooking spray.
- Heat the skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear the beef roast in the skillet for approximately 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
- Season generously with your favorite herbs (see ingredient list for suggestions), salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
- Place 4-6 cloves of minced garlic in the bottom of a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.
- Place the seared beef roast on top of the garlic.
- Pour 1 cup of balsamic vinegar evenly over the beef.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
- Carefully remove the beef roast from the slow cooker.
- Remove any netting or strings from the beef.
- Let the beef rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing against the grain.
- Serve the delicious herbed beef roast with your favorite sides, such as horseradish mashed potatoes. Spoon the pan juices over the sliced beef for extra flavor.
