Roast in a Slow Cooker

The basic template came from Jason Seib's Paleo Coach book.  (The basic template being sear the meat on the stovetop with some spices, then cook in a slow cooker with onions.)

So:
In a small bowl, mix your spices.  I did:
Salt (I went with Kosher)
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Oregano
BBQ of the Americas blend from Penzey's Spice  (Which is a blend of paprika, nutmeg, cayenne, various peppers, cinnamon, thyme, other stuff, etc.)

Mix it all together, rub most of the spice blend into all sides of the meat.

On a stove-top, heat some coconut oil on medium high, sear the meat on all sides for a couple minutes each side.

Slice some onions and place in the bottom of the slow cooker.  Put the roast on top.  Add a 1# bag of baby carrots.  Sprinkle the rest of the seasoning over everything.

Cook on low for 8 hours.

Really good!

Mustard Pot Roast

Take a couple pound beef roast of something.  Mine might have been chuck.

Smear it with dijon mustard, crack salt and pepper on top.

Toss it in the crockpot with a couple cubes frozen chicken stock (or 1 cup not frozen cubes), a couple quarted onions, and a few handfuls of carrots.

Cook on low for 8 hours.

Yum
