When it comes to comfort food, few dishes can rival a tender cut of beef wrapped in crispy bacon. The Slow Cooker Bacon Wrapped Sirloin Roast is not just another roast; it's a culinary experience that brings together the savory richness of beef and the smoky flavor profiles that bacon provides.
Ingredients
Scale:
3-4 lbs sirloin roast, preferably with good marbling
12 slices of thick-cut bacon
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup beef broth, homemade or high-quality store-bought
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard for a hint of tanginess
Fresh herbs (parsley or thyme) for added color and freshness
Cracked black pepper for an extra kick
Instructions
Pat the sirloin roast dry with paper towels and season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Let sit for 15-20 minutes.
Lay out the bacon slices and wrap them around the roast, securing the ends underneath or with toothpicks.
Sear the bacon-wrapped roast in a skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes on all sides until golden brown.
Transfer the seared roast to the slow cooker. Mix beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and Dijon mustard, then pour over the roast.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours until the roast is fork-tender.
Remove the roast from the slow cooker and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
Slice against the grain and serve warm, drizzled with cooking juices.
