-

Trim fat from pot roast. Cut onions into thin wedges and mince garlic. Add onions and garlic to a 4 to 5-quart slow cooker. Top with beef. If necessary, cut up meat to fit in cooker. In a medium bowl, combine broth, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, thyme, salt, and cayenne pepper. Pour over beef in cooker. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 11 to 12 hours or on high-heat setting for 5-1/2 to 6 hours. Remove beef and onion from cooker, reserving juices. Using two forks, shred beef, discarding any fat. Skim fat from juices. Add onion to beef; add enough juices to beef to moisten. Place 2-cup portions of beef in airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Makes 6 cups.

Easy and pretty darn good! I would make this again for sure and because I left out the jicama and cucumber I will absolutely add that salsa to the recipe next time.

1/26/2010 06:55:40 AM Report AbuseLoved this recipe (and so did my meat-connoisseur brother-in-law). Everyone liked the jicama/cucumber mix. I cooked the meat overnight and refrigerated till dinner. Suggestions: Don't put too much of the crockpot juices with the meat. As the recipe says, put in just enough to moisten the beef. Otherwise you'll get jello-like clumps of fat. A can of diced chilies would have added some kick.
