Ingredients

• rump roast
• yellow baby potatoes
• baby carrots
• beef broth
• onion
• sprig rosemary
• sprigs thyme
• salt, or to taste
• black pepper, or to taste

Variations

• Instead of just onions, I used shallots and pearl onions, which gave the dish a mellow sweetness without overpowering.
• I added a kick that I love. A little of smoked paprika and garlic powder hit the spot, I wanted.
• And just before digging into it, I drizzled a balsamic vinegar. This soury taste brightens the overall experience of Crockpot Rump Roast.
• One last, I replaced baby potatoes with sweet potatoes. A subtle sweetness that pairs beautifully with the savory broth. Its a match!

Learn from Us

1. Season Generously. Early on, I realized that salt and pepper aren’t just for the surface. The rump should be coated on every side to built a deep savory taste.
2. Layer with vegetable. I always place the potatoes and carrots at the bottom so they absorb all the meaty goodness, herbs juices while the roast sits on top.
3. Let it rest. The first time I sliced the roast straight out of the slow cooker, I lost so much juice! Now, I let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and It plays juicy and tender.

What to serve with Slowcooker Rump Roast

Serve it with creamy mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles to soak up the rich juices from the roast. Add a side of roasted or steamed vegetables like carrots, green beans, or Brussels sprouts for a balanced and colorful plate.

For an extra touch of flavor, include a warm loaf of crusty bread or soft dinner rolls to round out the meal.
