Directions

I used the 4 qt Westbend which has a removable cooking pot which can be used to brown the roast on the stove top.... Saute onion & garlic with oil in the cooking pot until transparent. Season the roast with Salt & Pepper and then dredge (lightly) in flour. Brown roast (on top of the onions & garlic) in the cook-pot on both sides (10 min). Transfer to the slow cooker, add the stewed tomatoes, water and Worcesteshire sauce.

Cooked on setting 4 (of 5) for about 5 hrs. When done, puree the remaining tomatoes, juices & onions, return to pan, add thickener for gravy... That's it! It was wonderful!
