Beef Pot Roast

So one of my favorite crock pot recipes is pot roast. I have been making this recipe for about a year now and thought it would be nice to share it. I adapted this version from an oven pot roast recipe: Garlic-Herb Crusted Beef Roast.

I still use the same flavor profile, just changed the avenue for which the roast is cooked.

A note on beef roasts:
sirloin roast: shreds
bottom round: slices
round rump roast: used for Italian beef recipes

Ingredients:
1 beef bottom round (around 3-4 pounds)
salt and pepper
garlic powder
dried basil
dried thyme
dried parsley
(seasonings: enough to make a rub out of it)
beef base (about 3 tablespoons)
3-4 cups of water (enough to almost submerge the roast)

Put seasonings all around roast and place fat side down in crock pot. Fill with water and beef base mixed in. 
Set the crock pot on high and cook for about 5 hours. Half way through cut it up and throw it back in the liquid. About 30 minutes to when its done you can add carrots and potatoes if you wish.
