Ingredients:

1                   yellow onion
4                   carrots
                    finely chopped
1     pound         red-skinned potatoes
1 1/2 cups          beef stock
1     cup           tomato sauce
1                   garlic clove
3                   fresh thyme sprigs
1                   bay leaf
1                   beef rump roast - (3 to 4 lbs)
                    Salt
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
1/4   cup           all-purpose flour
1     tablespoon    extra-virgin olive oil

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Put the onion, carrots, potatoes, stock, tomato sauce, garlic, thyme and bay leaf in a slow cooker and stir to combine.
Season the roast with salt and pepper. Put the flour in a large bowl, add the roast and toss to coat evenly.
In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil until nearly smoking. Add the roast and brown on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes total. Transfer to the slow cooker, cover and cook on high for 6 hours according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Transfer the roast to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice the meat and arrange on a warmed platter. Remove the bay leaf and serve the vegetables and sauce alongside.
This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
Comments: Because a rump roast is a tougher cut of meat, it lends itself nicely to preparation in a slow cooker. After long, slow cooking in the aromatic liquid, the roast emerges flavorful and fork-tender.
