Notes
- Storage:
- Leftovers: Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to five days in an airtight container or in the freezer for up to three months.
- Reheat: To reheat the beef, you can reheat shredded pieces of roast in a skillet or saucepan on top of the stove or in the oven at 350 degrees F. Add some beef broth to the pan as needed to heat the beef.
- Tips:
- Here are some special tips to follow so your balsamic roast beef comes out perfectly.
- Don't worry about choosing an expensive cut of roast to use to make slow cooker balsamic pot roast. Even the toughest piece of meat can cook up into a tender, juicy beef dinner.
- Keep an eye on the liquid in the pot as it helps to tenderize the roast. It's important to keep fully covered so the liquid doesn't evaporate. If needed, add more liquid to the slow cooker while it's cooking.
- Let the beef rest before serving for the best flavor and juiciest servings of beef.
