What cut off beef works best for a pot roast in the crockpot?

Question

I want the one that shreds apart. Last couple of times I used the eye and bottom round and was not happy with it. I had plenty of liquid and cooked for a long time.

Answer 1

Bone in or boneless chuck roast works very well.

Answer 2

I always use a chuck roast when making pot roast--regardless of whether I'm cooking it on the stove top, oven or crock pot. It's generally not very tender, but it has the best flavor of all the roasts out there, and 8 - 10 hours in the crock pot (or 3 hours in the oven) make it fork tender. :) Makes excellent gravy, too.

Go for a rump roast, it shreds the best. In order to get the texture you desire, use two forks when you are done cooking it and just pull it apart rather than slicing.
