I can’t remember the last time I made roast beef! My husband loves it, but the rest of the family isn’t too fond of it. I decided to try a recipe that would make the roast beef and the gravy at the same time and it was delicious! Just whip up some mashed potatoes and you’ve got a delicious meal with hardly any preparation!

Notes
We like to serve this roast beef with a side dish of mashed potatoes.
To turn this into a freezer meal:
In a gallon-sized freezer meal bag, add all ingredients. Squeeze out as much air as possible and seal bag closed. Place freezer bag into freezer and it will last 60-90 days.
When ready to use, spray inside of slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray and dump ingredients from bag into slow cooker. Place the lid on top and cook for 9-10 hours on low heat (you can cook it for 5-6 hours on high heat, but it will not be as tender as cooking it low and slow. We highly recommend low and slow!). Follow the rest of the instructions as written.
