Tip
When your scissor blades get sticky or grimy, wipe down the blades with a cloth dipped in full-strength white vinegar, and then dry it off with a rag or dish towel.

Recipe
Slow cooker Beef
1 1/2 pounds beef roast

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 package onion soup mix

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon steak sauce

3 carrots, sliced

2 celery stalks, diced

1 green bell pepper, chopped

1 yellow onion

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup tomato juice

Instructions

Cut beef roast into serving-sized portions. Use more beef if you need more than 6 servings. Brown beef in a bit of vegetable oil, although you can skip this step if rushed for time. Slice onion and separate into rings. Dice the peeled carrots, dice the celery and slice the peppers into thin strips or circles. Place these into bottom of slow cooker. Sprinkle the beef pieces with fresh ground black pepper, minced garlic and the onion soup mix. Place on top of the vegetables. Mix the steak sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl with about 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup tomato juice. Pour this over the meat. Turn the slow cooker to high for 30 minutes, or, if you're in a hurry, skip this step. Turn to low, cover and cook for 7-9 hours.
