Hi Charles.
That's where multi-purpose cookers come into their own. You can brown the meat, and slow cook it in the one device.
Cheers
Andrew

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of using a crock pot, though? I would want to cut down on cleanup later, and just cook it using one device. Put it in the crock pot, set it, and forget it, at least for a while.

Even if the roast is frozen, I like to brown it on all sides in a skillet
first in a little seasoned oil. (very little oil, just so won't stick.)

I put a frozen roast in my crock pot in the morning on low and at around 5 it is well done no matter what size. I prefer cooking it frozen to thawed.

If it is cooked to an internal temperature that is recommended by the FDA, that should kill bacteria, shouldn't it? I've heard that a frozen roast can be put into a crock pot and cooked on warm until partially thawed to prevent the pot from cracking, then on medium or high until done. If this is not
so, I will learn something from the responses.  Thanks.

It's not recommended. Yes, folks have had okay results with it, but you do
take a bit of a health risk if you do so.
Meat has to be above or below a set range of temperature to avoid growing
some pretty ugly bacteria, and cooking a frozen roast with some mass to
it,
unless it's sliced thin, leaves the interior of the roast within that
risky
window for too long, at least according to the experts.

Hello,
I'd guess there was much debate about whether frozen meat will cook
properly in a slow cooker. I've always thought meat must first be
thawed. I'm not wanting to start trouble, I just want to learn
something. So, I realize frozen meat needs more time to cook, but can I
cook frozen meat in the crockpot?
thanks,
Nancy
