Balsamic Roast Beef Recipe

Ok so I'm going to honest.. This recipe was amazing but I didn't cook it. My cousin Laura made it for me for lunch yesterday.  This is a nice break from the typical gravy packets and powder mixes.  It had a nice "tang" to it.  We had it with Pillsbury Crescent rolls Yum! You could make a great sandwich out of this or just make it with mash potatoes.  It says it serves 6-8..hmm yeah I'm going to say maybe 4-6.. If my husband is eating (and roasts are his favorite dinner meal) it'll serve 2!(i'm totally serious)   She left out the Pepper flakes and honestly I'm glad because I don't really like spicy food.  I'm making this Saturday night so it DOES count to put this recipe up..!  yum! Score:9.5!!!!

This Balsamic Roast Beef Recipe is simple and delicious. You’ll definitely want left overs of this roast beef recipe for all those scrumptious leftover meals!

Ingredients
  • 1 3-4 pound boneless roast beef
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • Instructions
  1. Place roast beef into the insert of your slow cooker. In a 2-cup measuring cup, mix together all remaining ingredients. Pour over roast beef and set the timer for your slow cooker. (4 hours on High or 6-8 hours on Low)
  2. Once roast beef has cooked, remove from slow cooker with tongs into a serving dish. Break apart lightly with two forks and then ladle about ¼ – ½ cup of gravy over roast beef.
  3. Store remaining gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator for another use.
Notes
If you prefer a more pronounced flavor, once the roast beef has been removed, use a fat separator on the gravy and then pour the gravy into a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until the gravy has reduced by half.
