reduced in Waitrose today, an absolute bargain so I thought i'd cook it in the slow cooker tomorrow ready for dinner tomorrow night then use the left overs in a stir fry wednesday. But, I've never cooked a joint of beef in the slow cooker before!! What do i need to do?

TIA

Probably too late, but I have just put the joint in the slow cooker with a thinnish "gravy" sauce so that all the juices thicken this while it is cooking. Just enough to cover the joint so that it sdoesn't dry out. Incredibly easy. Mine has always cooked brilliantly and is delicious, especially as it is so little work.

Hope you enjoy!!
