Re: ? About Pot Roast In Crock-Pot

I brown it because it makes the gravy taste better.

I don't. Comes out yummy every time. You CAN NOT mess up a pot roast, unless maybe if you don't let it cook long enough.

I agree with this.

I don't brown first.

I do, it seems to make it more tender in the end.

I always brown the meat, because you get those lovely tasty bits for the gravy.

Re: ? About Pot Roast In Crock-Pot

I follow whatever recipe I am using.

Yesterday I did a brisket in the crock pot and it called for browning the meat for 5 min on each side and then 9 hours on low in the crock pot.
