Notes

  •  
  • Crockpot: An easy way to prepare the roast is to cook it in a crock pot with 1 cup of water and an onion soup mix along with whatever seasonings you like for 3-4 hours on high or 8 hours on low.  
  • Oven Roasted: See our recipe for oven roasting. This will take about 3 hours.
  • Instant Pot: To save time, prepare the roast in the Instant Pot. This cuts the cooking time in half. The roast can be prepared and ready to go in 1 1/2 hours.
