- Prepare the Beef Roast:
- Season the beef roast with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Rub the seasonings evenly over the surface of the roast.
- Wrap Roast with Beef Bacon:
- Wrap the seasoned beef roast with slices of beef bacon. Secure the bacon with toothpicks if needed.
- Brown the Beef Bacon:
- In a frying pan over medium heat, add olive oil. Place the beef bacon-wrapped roast in the pan and brown it on all sides. This step adds flavor and helps seal in juices.
- Place in Slow Cooker:
- Transfer the browned beef bacon-wrapped roast to the slow cooker.
- Surround with Onions:
- Arrange the sliced onions around the roast in the slow cooker.
- Add Beef Broth:
- Pour beef broth over the roast and onions.
- Cook in Slow Cooker:
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the roast is tender and cooked through.
- Check for Doneness:
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the roast. It should reach at least 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness.
- Serve:
- Once cooked, remove the roast from the slow cooker, discard toothpicks if used, and slice it. Serve the slices with the cooked onions and juices from the slow cooker.
- Enjoy:
- Enjoy your delicious slow-cooked beef roast with beef bacon!
