How long do I cook a roast?
generally it’s 1hr/lb, however, it depends on how you like your meat cooked. when I’m putting a roast in the slow cooker I add potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, katchup or bbq sauce or stewed tomatoes (the acid from the tomatoes in any one of these will make you meat more tender) Then I leave it on all day while i’m at work (approx. 9 hrs) by the time I get home the meat is more of a pull apart instead of slices. I’d go with the 1hr/lb method until you’re more comfortable with cooking.
