Crock Pot 7-Bone Roast

JT  35 Comments

The Magic of Crock Pot Cooking: Crock pots, with their slow-cooking prowess, offer a unique way to infuse flavors deeply and tenderize meat until it’s melt-in-your-mouth perfect. This particular recipe stands out for its ease of preparation and the rich, comforting flavors it delivers.

Recipe Evolution – From Roast to Stew: What begins as a simple crock pot roast evolves into something more, a hearty beef stew. This transformation occurs through the slow melding of flavors and textures. The roast, initially the star, breaks down over hours of cooking, blending with other ingredients to create a harmonious and thick stew.

Preparation Flexibility: One of the highlights of this recipe is its flexibility. You can prepare all the ingredients the night before, making it a convenient option for busy weekdays. Just chop your vegetables, measure out your seasonings, and prep your meat. Store everything in the fridge overnight. In the morning, all you need to do is layer these ingredients in the crock pot, set it, and go about your day.

Alternatively, if you’re looking for a more leisurely cooking experience, you can turn this into a weekend project. This slower pace allows you to savor each step of the process, perhaps even enhancing the recipe with your own twists.

Ingredient Selection: The choice of ingredients plays a crucial role in this dish. Opting for a quality cut of beef ensures tenderness and flavor. Root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and parsnips not only add texture but also absorb the flavors of the broth and meat, enriching the stew’s overall taste.

Seasoning and Spices: Herbs and spices are essential in this recipe, bringing depth and complexity to the dish. Thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves are classics that never fail to impress. Garlic and onions add a necessary pungency, while a touch of Worcestershire sauce or a splash of red wine can introduce a new layer of flavor.

Cooking Process: The beauty of the crock pot is in its simplicity. Once you’ve added all your ingredients, the slow cooker does the rest. The low and slow cooking process breaks down the fibers in the beef, making it tender and allowing it to infuse its juices into the broth. As the day progresses, the aromas filling your kitchen will be a delightful reminder of the meal to come.

    Hi! I am interested in making this recipe. How many lbs of meat? I’m going to ask for the cut but let’s say I just use a short rib bone-in? How many lbs would that be?

    About to make this roast. Question: are the herbs as measured dry or fresh. I assume since you did not specify fresh, that they are dry herbs. Is my assumption correct?

    Can I follow this recipe verbatim except in a convection oven (very low temperature) ? my 7 – bone won’t fit in my crock pot or could I cut it to fit and layer it to fit in my crock-pot?

      Hi Joan. This is Non from Team Caveman. I think first try cutting/layering. If it’s too snug, a convection oven at low temp might be a good alternative. Let us know how it goes! Thanks!

        I layered mine in a 6 quart crock pot. Cooked on high for 5 hours and it came out delicious. Temps vary so some extra time may be required.

    Curious if you’re crunched for time could you do this on high for 6 hours? Thanks!!

      Low and slow is the best for roasts but you could try it. It just may not be as tender.

    OHHH EMMMM GEEEE, I made this today and it was AMAZING!!! And so easy! I couldn’t find a 7 bone roast so I used a chuck roast. Still excellent! Can’t wait to eat it again for lunch tomorrow. I’ve tried a few of your recipes now and I have to say they are all so yummy and easy to make. I’m not a cross fitter, your IG page was the first paleo page I started following, mostly out of curiosity — now I look forward to all your posts. Can’t wait to pick up your new book! I know it’s going to be awesome. Thank You for all your hard work… Hubby thanks you too, he’s very happy with my new paleo obsession!

      I do since I’ve always made my pot roasts that way and I like a good ‘crust’ on the meat but you definitely don’t have to.

    Just finished eating this meal, using a tradition roast (3#) since I couldn’t find a bone-in one at the local store while traveling. This recipe was AMAZING! Cooked for 10 hours on low, and let it warm for another 2. The meat shredded with east and was so tender and delicious! I cannot wait to make this again for my family, and with a bigger roast if I can find it! Thanks again!

      Your welcome, any roasts do work, you just get a few different flavors with different cuts of meat

      Its a description of the bone in that particular cut, if you look at it, it looks like a 7

    La Cense Beef is another great place to get grass fed beef from. I have a hard time finding it locally so I always order from La Cense Beef.

      I did see some of their recipes but their beef is very expensive compared to most local places etc.
