Notes
- Critical Note: Due to the differences in cuts, different sizes, and differences in slow cooker temperatures (e.g. slow cooking on low is not specific and can vary in range between different manufacturer's specifications), results can vary. This is why you will have to use a thermometer to get to the desired finish, no matter what size it is. 90 minutes on low for my 5-pound chuck roast was the perfect weeknight meal for me.
