This is the best slow cooker beef I've ever made! The meat was so tender, it was fantastic! I'm not a fan of rutabagas and turnip so I replaced them with white and portobella mushrooms.

The rutabagas and turnip take over this dish. If those are your favorite flavors, then you may enjoy this recipe but, for me, the flavor of the onions,carrots, potatoes and the beef were all tainted by the more powerful flavors.

First of all, i love the use of the vegtables no one ever uses. But no way I would ever, never ever rub the meat in flour and just place it in the middle of a slow cooker. You should, and always should, first dry rub the meat in a bowl with salt and pepper. Then in a large pan with 2 tbls oil, sear the roast on all sides, getting a nice browning. Then, and only then,put said roast in slow cooker. Throw in sliced onions and your choice of veggies to vacated pan to cook a little and soak up the rendered meat juices then add them to slow cooker. Beer or wine should always be added to the liquid. Peace

This is yummy. It is, however, too sweet to me so I use just 1/4 cup sugar. Otherwise, I make this all the time.

I hate to be negative, but this was the worst recipe I've tried from the food network. It was too sweet even though I cut the brown sugar down by half and the combination of spices were too odd for me. It was a sin to throw all those yummy root veggies and the roast away, but I really hated this recipe and didn't think it could be salvaged.

This might be THE BEST roast recipe I've ever had! I did some substitutions though. I had about a 2 lbs venison roast instead of the beef. My grocery store didn't have turnips or rutabegas - so my veggies were: onion, 5 huge garlic cloves (instead of the powder, 4 carrots, 4 parsnips, and 2 big sweet potatoes. I also didn't have cumin, because I didn't think through my spice cupboard, so I substituted curry powder. Cooked on low for 12 hours and it was fantastic! Goes beautifully with homemade bread from the bread machine! This will become a go-to for me!
