Method:
1 Brown the beef joint to seal in the juices.
2 Place the vegetables in the bottom of the
Cooking Pot. Place the joint on top of the
vegetables.
3 Add enough boiling water to cover the
vegetables.
4 Season well and cover with the Glass Lid.
5 Cook for approximately 8-10 hours on Low or
5-6 hours on High.
6 Take the joint out of the Slow Cooker with a
slotted spoon and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
The cooking liquid can be thickened with corn
flour to make a gravy.
IMPORTANT: When buying a joint of meat, make
sure that it will fit in the Cooking Pot, so that
with liquid, it will still be 2.5cm below the rim
when it is covered.
The shape of the meat is just as important as
the weight.
