I pot roast beef inmy slow cooker, seal the joint first in non stick frying pan, pop into slow cooker cover with made up bovril no salt, pepper or anything else and it's lovely I have to remember to turn it on then I can leave it and come on here.

in my recipe book it said pot roasted was on a stove!

I wouldn't have minded slow roasting it but I haven't got 4-8 hours now !

Oven......pot.......boiled.......sealed.............roasted????

Oh dear...............now I'm really confused!!

So you seal the meat then put it in a s
saucepan and boil it in water??

Think I'd better stick to the roasting and slow cooking! :)))

Of course Stan.... but it is still a pot in our house....

KITTYYYyyyy.....!
Sorry I should have made it clearer to you.
Stan is right.
We have a big pot with a lid for pot roasting.... and casseroling.

Good luck Kitty.

No no no
pot roasted is done in a dish in the oven
cooked in a saucepan on top is boiled

Slightly different Kitty.
And yes... basically... in a pot! ;-0)

PS... brown it off first to seal the juices in.

I've never tried pot roast before - just guessing how long it will take!

Penny, prefer it oven roasted but don't suppose you had much choice there, enjoy it anyway.

Having roast beef tonight so turned oven on - prepared potatoes & other veg.

Son kept asking me to come & play draughts.

Quickly put tray in oven.

Came back to check an hour later - oven is still cold - fan has been going so looks like it broken.

Had to pot roast it now & tea is now delayed!
