My first ever roast I made last week was a beef sirloin roast that I thawed in the fridge (and accidentally dried it out a little) so for my second roast I’m using my mom’s 25-year method of putting it in frozen to slow cook a beef chuck roast. However I added the dripping from my first roast to the bottom and some different seasonings! I’ll update in 12 hours when it’s done! (Hopefully it goes well)
Recipe: 1 Frozen Beef Chuck Roast with optional drippings and seasoning. (I used various pork seasonings I had)

I always sear meats quickly on a pan before putting them in the slow cooker. I think it adds something (don’t burn though).
I’m sure it adds flavor but not too sure it is really necessary. I still do it.
Edit: previous roast probably adds a lot of flavor. If I have good juice I’d transform it. Sometimes turn it into a curry or something 😀
I do the frozen roast method too. Put it in the crock pot in the morning, season, add some water, let it cook low and slow. I’ll add the potatoes and veggies if I’m doing a traditional type pot roast.
For the gravy, scoop out about a cup of the juice and let it cool a bit. Pour the remaining juice through a wire strainer from the crock pot into a sauce pan. Bring it to a low boil. The juice you pulled aside, whisk in a decent amount of flour, depending how much juice you have in the sauce pan. Slowly pour that cup into the juice into the sauce pan as you whisk. The sauce will thicken. Add more from the cup to you desired gravy thickness. I’ll add salt and pepper to taste.
I never slow cooked a frozen cut of meat. I’m interested in seeing the final result! Maybe I’ll try next week
> chuck roast
**Much** better choice than sirloin.

Looks great going in. Gonna need an “after” pic, Waffle.
My god. Don’t any of you people Google how to properly cook anything? That meat looks so sad. Why do you hate yourself?
You can do that? gonna wait for result pic
No sear? Say goodbye to flavor 👋
This is not food safe, at all. Lots of people do lots of dumb things for a very long time and fail to associate the side effects. Always thaw your meat before cooking.
It will taste fine, but there’s also a very good chance you’ll be having a bad time on the toilet the next day.
