How To Make crockpot applesauce crazy amazing roast beef!

  • 1
    I prefer to always brown beef in my crockpot recipes
    Brown roast all sides in a little olive oil
    and butter for best flavor
  • 2
    Mix packets and applesauce together
    Add one cup of water to mix well
  • 3
    Place roast in crockpot
    Cover it with sauce
  • 4
    If cooking longer add vegetables later so they won't disappear into the gravy
  • 5
    NOTE
    I sometimes cook longer than 8 hours if a larger roast it falls apart in the gravy and is even more delicious !
