Tender Beef

Oh yeah! Plus consider the time saved. A regular roast with veg takes about 40 minutes to cook. Chicken pieces with the bone in only take 20 minutes AND if you wanted to cook a batch of broccoli, it's only 5 minutes. My favorite chili takes 15 minutes and I don't precook anything... I just dump everything, raw ground beef and all, into the cooker.

It's a life saver. For sure.

 Thank you, everyone, for the responses. I'm so amazed to learn something new about beef...and I do have a slow cooker and had always 'tolerated' stews when Mom made them.... so that could be a protein option down the line. I love this site already, it's so helpful!!!
