Certainly! It sounds like you’re preparing a roast with beef bacon in a slow cooker. Here’s a simple guide for the steps you’ve described:
Slow Cooker Beef Roast with Beef Bacon
INGREDIENTS:
3-4 lbs beef roast (such as chuck or round)
6-8 slices of beef bacon
1 large onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup beef broth
INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare the Beef Roast:
Season the beef roast with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Rub the seasonings evenly over the surface of the roast.
Wrap Roast with Beef Bacon:
Wrap the seasoned beef roast with slices of beef bacon. Secure the bacon with toothpicks if needed.
Brown the Beef Bacon:
In a frying pan over medium heat, add olive oil. Place the beef bacon-wrapped roast in the pan and brown it on all sides. This step adds flavor and helps seal in juices.
Place in Slow Cooker:
Transfer the browned beef bacon-wrapped roast to the slow cooker.
Surround with Onions:
Arrange the sliced onions around the roast in the slow cooker.
Add Beef Broth:
Pour beef broth over the roast and onions.
Cook in Slow Cooker:
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the roast is tender and cooked through.
Check for Doneness:
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the roast. It should reach at least 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness.
Serve:
Once cooked, remove the roast from the slow cooker, discard toothpicks if used, and slice it. Serve the slices with the cooked onions and juices from the slow cooker.
Enjoy:
Enjoy your delicious slow-cooked beef roast with beef bacon!
