Directions
1Place roast in slow cooker and pierce some holes all over the top surface of it with a sharp knife
2Cut large onion into quarters and place around the roast in the base of the slow cooker
3Combine rub ingredients and rub onto and into the surface of the roast beef
4Squirt the mustard across the top of the roast
5Cook on high for 4hrs then low for 2hrs (or Auto for 7hrs or low for 8hrs)
6When cooked, using a slotted spoon remove the onion and discard
7Remove roast beef from slow cooker and rest it while you make the gravy
8To make gravy add the gravy powder sachet (dry, no water added) to the cooking juices and whisk to combine well then turn to HIGH
9While carving your meat and plating up your meals have the slow cooker cook on HIGH to thicken your gravy nicely (you could do this on a stove top also if you prefer to do it faster but ours thickened nicely in slow cooker in around 10-15mins)

AMAZING! The best roast beef we’ve eaten and the gravy was delicious. Will definitely be making this again.

This is an outstanding Roast. Don’t let the ingredients put you off. Kids loved it, hubby loved it. Even the 12 mnth had a try.
Absolutely easy and stunning!!!

Im not normally a big fan of roast beef but this was delicious! I had to tweak a couple of things as I didn’t have all the ingredients but it was very tasty!

Think my S/C cooks too hot ’cause my 1.8kg piece of topside came out so dry! However, once we’d poured the yummy gravy over it, that saved the dish. Am going to try this again with a piece of blade.

Absolutely fantastic! I used twice as much american mustard as we love it so much. Juices made for a very interesting delicious gravy. Definitely making this again.

Made this with a 1.1kg topside roast with no fat on it. Cooked for 8 hours on low and it was quite dry. Have made it before with a bigger piece of meat and it was perfect so if making with a smaller roast, Iād reduce the cooking time. Gravy and spice flavours were delicious!

Absolutely Delicious. At the request of my partner when I make this tomorrow it will have smoky BBQ sauce instead of Mustard… I can’t wait to see how it goes!

Great recipe used garlic salt instead of powder and also added whole grain mustard seeds but used a little less of the bottled mustard. Made the leftover meat into pies I think the pies were more of a winner than the roast

This was absolutely incredible! I omitted the salt and used garlic salt instead. It was definitely a hit and I will slow cook all my roasts from now on! Thank you for creating such a delicious dish!! šššš

This was absolutely beautiful! I think my slow cooker is a little hotter than others so next time I won’t cook it as long. I substituted the garlic powder for garlic salt and omitted the pink salt. I think next time I’ll try a pepper gravy! This was the first time I’ve slow cooked a roast and I’ll happily do this from now on! Thank you for creating a delicious dish! šššš

This was absolutely delicious. Has been requested to add to the roster. We had four hungry adults and two even hungrier toddlers and there was still leftovers. The best part is making the gravy right there in the dish, no extra pots to clean! Thanks for sharing š
