Spices and mixed dried fruit make a great flavor for this roast-it's a family favorite. (Don't confuse the dried fruit bits you buy for baking-look for packages of regular size dried apples, peaches, pears and plums). Ingredients:
2 lbs boneless beef chuck roast |
1 tablespoon cooking oil |
salt |
ground black pepper |
1 (7 ounce) package mixed dried fruit |
2 cups thinly sliced onions, wedges |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1 (5 1/2 ounce) can apple juice |
Directions:
1. Trim fat from meat and if need be, cut the meat to fit the cooker (3 1/2 to 4-quart cooker).
2. Brown meat on top of stove in a Dutch oven. Brown on all side using the 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.
3. Cut up any large pieces of dried fruit; place the fruit in the slow cooker; add the onion wedges. Place the meat on top of the fruit and onion; sprinkle with allspice and pour in the apple juice.
4. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hour.
