Do You Put Water In The Crock Pot With A Roast?

I don’t recommend using water in your Crock Pot when preparing a roast.

For this recipe I have used beef broth instead of water. This still keeps the roast moist, while also infusing maximum flavor into the roast as it cooks.

Is It Better To Cook A Roast On High Or Low In Crock Pot?

Low heat is always the best temperature for preparing a beef roast in your Crock Pot.

Preparing your roast at the low heat setting in your Crock Pot, for a longer period of time, will ensure your roast is as tender and tasty as possible.
