Easy and Delicious Crock Pot Roast Recipe

It's wintertime and comfort food season! So, looking around for an easy recipe for roast beef that I could put in the crock pot, I combined Ina Garten's Balsamic Roast Beef from her How Easy is That? cookbook AND Brisket with Sweet Mustard Sauce from The Ski House Cookbook. And the end result was delicious!...tender and flavorful and ohhh so comforting!

The combined recipe goes like this:

1/3 c. Dijon mustard

1/3 c. brown sugar

5 garlic cloves, minced

1 T. balsamic vinegar

1 t. kosher salt

1 T. freshly cracked black pepper

2 medium, yellow onions

2 1/2 lb. roast

1 c. beef broth

Quarter onions and scatter onto bottom of crock pot. Rinse roast and place on top of onions.

In small bowl, combine: mustard, brown sugar, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Pour mixture over meat.

Pour beef broth around roast. Cook on low setting for about 4 hours.

Serves 6.
