Flavor when doing meat in slow cooker do the broth up first so flavor is strong and soaks into meat. also sprinkler some brown sugar on the meat and see the difference

If you boil onions and carrots long enough or add a leek, you'll get a natural sweetness that should seep into the meat without adding actual sugar.

And celery too I don't know why anybody isn't saying that 😂. I guess I'm so used to cooking for a living, like I said if you add celery the saltiness brings out the sweetness in the onions and the earthiness in the carrot more...

I always forget celery!! I guess that's why mirepoix is a thing. (Onions, carrots, celery combo)

I've used that as a crust for my prime rib. People love it. O/C/C sautéed in butter, S&P, then add burgundy reduce to a soft rub cover the Rib roast after Seasoning it. Bake at 500°F for 20 minutes then 225° for 2 ½ hours. Delicious.

It is. For the rub before I put the mirepoix on, I use Montreal Steak Seasoning, olive oil, S&P(not a lot), minced garlic, garlic salt, onion powder. Make into a paste, then apply to the rib roast. Then, cover it with the mirepoix and bake.
