Can I slow cook a beef roasting joint?
Discussion
Yes, I slow cook joints of meat all the time.
I just pop it in with some salt, pepper, herbs of choice, pack round with onions and carrots, put at least an inch of water in the bottom, and leave.
I have heard of a lot of people sealing the meat in a pan first, but I like it when it falls apart ..

Hang it in your back yard for 12-24 days. Then sell it back to Sainsbury as "Mature Beef - Premium Extra Special".
Otherwise just use common sense. Is the meat rotten? No? Smells good? Just fekkin cook it any way you like.
When I used to buy meat from the butcher back in the 1970's there was no such thing as sell by dates. Same as from the grocer. Of course if my mum sent me for a few pound of lambs neck and it was rotten, she would go straight back to the butcher and put him in his place.
Only happened once or twice and that butcher lost his job. The local baker ended up ste too - so we all went 2 miles further for some new fangled "Granary Bread" fresh baked and only 5p a loaf.
Good old days. No stupid sell by dates either.

Just so you're aware. This isn't the Daily Mail website you've wandered onto...Otherwise just use common sense. Is the meat rotten? No? Smells good? Just fekkin cook it any way you like.
