In an effort to get a great meal when I am working or have stuff to do, I find myself using my Crock Pot a lot. The store had eye roast on sale. Because it is a lean roast, I often find it a bit tough. Not this time, it was fork-tender and tasted delish.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

The combination of red wine, beef broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce creates a rich and savory base for this roast. Seasonings add the right kick of flavor, and the gravy mix helps to thicken the sauce. When simmering, the meat becomes extremely tender, and the mushrooms and onions absorb the gravy's flavor. We served Crock Pot roast with roasted potatoes and crisp veggies for a comforting meal.

How To Make tasty crock pot eye roast

Test Kitchen Tips

We could not find Emeril's seasoning and substituted it with 1/2 Tbsp Kinder's all-purpose seasoning and 1/2 Tbsp Kinder's buttery herb seasoning. We also used a chuck roast.

Step 1

Add the oil to a pan and brown the beef. Remove and place in the Crock Pot.

Step 2

Pour the wine and beef into the pan, scraping up all the goodness from browning the beef. Pour in the Crock Pot.
Step 3

Add the onion and mushrooms to the Crock Pot. Sprinkle the dry gravy mix over the beef.
Step 4

In a small bowl, mix Emeril seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and black coffee.
Step 5

Pour the sauce mixture into the Crock Pot. Turn the Crock Pot on to cook on high for 4 - 5 hours or low for 8 hours.
Step 6

Remove the roast, allow it to rest for a few minutes. Slice and spoon the gravy and mushrooms over the roast and enjoy.
