Roast Beef 4 Ways!

 

 

During the summer and canning season I don’t like to heat the kitchen up too much. One thing I like to do, because it is just my husband and I, I like to cook once and be able to serve it several ways.

I browned a shoulder roast and put it in the slow cooker with a can of French onion soup  over the top and let cook for 8 hours on low.
