Slow Cooker Beef, Stews & Roasts

Hundreds of recipes by David Ross – tender roasts, hearty stews, chili and meatballs.

Profile:

David Ross's recipes center on the long, slow cuts: chuck roast, brisket, shredded beef and stew meat that turns tender over a full day or a long afternoon. Most of his work sits in our Beef category, with a steady run of chili, meatball soup, hamburger stew and Poor Man's Stew filling out Soups & Stews. Ground turkey and roast turkey show up as lighter swaps, and a handful of global dishes, such as German potato salad and beef mechado, round things out.

What sets his recipes apart is the attention to texture and timing. Stews are built to thicken properly instead of ending up thin, meats are browned when it improves the flavor, and serving sizes are stated clearly, from a family dinner for 6 to a big pot for 8 or 12. Cook times are written out so you can plan around a workday or a Sunday.

If you cook for a hungry table and want dinners that mostly take care of themselves, start with his beef roasts and stews, then work your way through the chilis and meatballs. The latest additions are listed below.
