Recipe Tips

  • I recommend not cooking the beef on the high-temperature setting as it might not come out as tender as cooking it on low for eight hours.
  • A large piece of meat should work fine in this recipe without any adjustments. The spice rub should make enough for up to 2kg (4.4 lb) of meat.
  • The meat can be placed straight into the slow cooker if you do not have the time to marinate it in the fridge overnight.
