Spiced Bear Roast Recipes

BEST EVER BEAR ROAST | FALL-APART TENDER RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the olive oil to a large pan and heat over medium high heat. Meanwhile, pat the roast down with a paper towel to absord excess moisture. Sprinkle it with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper.
• When the pan is hot, sear the roast on all sides, creating a nice crust. This will take 5-10 minutes.
• Once the roast is seared, lay it in the bottom of a slow cooker.
• Mix together the garlic cloves, beef stock, red wine, balsamic, tomato paste, and the remaining salt and pepper.
• Pour the liquid over roast and lay the thyme sprigs over the top.
• Cover the slow cooker with a lid, and let it cook for 4-6 hours on high or 8-9 hours on low. The roast should be falling apart with a fork, that's how you know it's done.
• Serve with the liquid you cooked the roast in (you can reduce it down on the stove if you like). Enjoy!
