How to Make Beef Rump Roast in a Slow Cooker
A rump roast beef dinner draws meat lovers with the promise of a down-home delicious meal any way you make it. Plus, the roast is so versatile as leftovers in an array of variety that is limited only by our imagination.
I like to use Rump Roast because it is so flexible and tender. The only problem I have is that sometimes the butcher leaves too much fat and I trim it off. Today's Rump Roast is perfect, about 4 pounds with just a patch of fat covering about 1/4 of the top side.
Remember, I tend to cook by feel, based on what ingredients I have on hand. Feel free to make any changes for your palate. I did not cook carrots with the roast because I was preparing a meal that would include a guest that does not care for them. You can always add carrots with the potatoes or take some of the beef broth from the slow cooker and prepare them on the stovetop or in a microwave, I have done both and that broth makes all the difference in the taste just like Mom used to make.
Let us get going on the Slow Cooker Beef Roast with Onions and Potatoes.

- Remove roast to rest.
- Peel and quarter 4 medium potatoes. Place potatoes in slow cooker on high heat.

Delicious One Pot Meal
A Meal Fit For A King
Many times when I was growing up Mom would cook a beef roast in a roast in the oven and add the peeled potatoes and carrots for a family sit down meal. I believe it was one of my Dad's favorite meals. It ready was and is still a meal fit for a king.
One thing Dad always had to have with dinner or lunch was a piece of buttered bread or toast. Usually, it was Mom homemade wheat bread. I have to agree with him, that this delicious dinner is even better with a good slice of bread.
