Honestly, I get nervous when putting a roast in my crockpot because I fear the possibility of an overcooked and dry hunk of meat! But, I couldn’t have been more pleased with this recipe. So moist, flavorful and a great use of grass-fed chuck roast. Leftovers were also fantastic and it paired so well with local greens for a well balanced meal.
