We are heading into the colder weather now in Minnesota. One thing that brings me back to my childhood and cozy days of winter is a pot roast. And this is a pot roast with a little pizzaz. But, I want you to know the pizazz doesn’t make it any harder to prepare. It just adds an amazing depth of flavor that a traditional pot roast doesn’t have.
For this recipe I used a Grass-Fed Beef Arm Roast. It was what I had in my freezer. An arm roast is a tough cut of beef that works best slow cooked. You can use a pot roast, rump roast, round roast, blade roast and chuck eye. They are also economical cuts of meat and aren’t super expensive.
Ingredients
1 Grass-Fed Beef Roast (I used an Arm Roast)
4 cloves garlic, peeled and whole
1/4 cup Bragg’s Liquid Aminos or Coconut Aminos
1/3 cup Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon Himalayan salt
1 teaspoon pepper
Directions
- Place the Roast in a Slow Cooker
- Spread the cloves of garlic on the bottom of the crock
- Pour the liquid aminos and balsamic vinegar on top of the roast (most will roll off and sit on the bottom of the slow cooker)
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper
- Turn the slow cooker on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours
- The roast will be extremely tender and can be served as a main dish to any vegetable side dish

I threw this in the slow cooker last night when I went to bed because I knew I had a very busy Morning today. I made it for my lunch, and also I threw some carrots in there. All I can say is Ohhh my goodness!! Totally deeee-licious!
Loved this recipe!!! We ate it with taco fixings. My whole family raved about this recipe and it was so easy. I’m married to a chiro so love your web site. TFS.
Thanks for sharing Tisha! I’m so glad it was a favorite of your family. Thumbs up from the family is always the BEST!
Hi, I love your recipes and website! Can I substitute soy sauce for the Bragg’s in this recipe?
Hi Lee, yes you can!! I prefer Tamari soy sauce because it’s gluten free!
I just wanted you to know that this has become a family favorite in my house, we eat at least 3x a month. I prepare it exactly the way the receipe calls for. Thank you so much for this awesome, easy and seriously tasty meal!
Thanks Amanda. I’m so excited that your family loves this! Easy and delicious, right?
I started making this before I realized we didn’t have Bragg’s liquid aminos so I used lemon juice. Tasted great and I am not a fan of roast normally. Can this recipe be used on a pork roast?
Hey Jen, so glad it worked out for you and you loved it so much. I rarely eat pork and so don’t know much about how to cook it or prepare it, but I’m sure it would work out. Blessings!
