This Slow Cooker Deli Roast Beef recipe yields tender, flavorful roast beef perfect for sandwiches or as a main dish. Cooked low and slow with simple seasonings, it replicates the classic deli-style roast beef with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale

3 pounds beef top round roast, trimmed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 cup beef broth, low sodium
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme

Instructions

Pat the beef top round roast dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
Rub the olive oil evenly over the entire surface of the roast.
Generously season the roast with the spice mixture, pressing it into the meat on all sides.
Place the seasoned roast into the slow cooker.
Pour the beef broth around the roast in the slow cooker, avoiding washing off the seasoning.
Add the sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme on top of the roast.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 hours, or until the roast is tender and reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (medium rare) to 145°F (medium).
Once cooked, remove the roast from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
Serve the sliced roast beef warm or chilled for deli-style sandwiches.
