Look for a roast that has good marbling (or white fat) running through it, and please please don’ttrim the fat off before cook...
Do I need to add liquid to the crock pot with the roast?
You really don’t! The beef will release plenty of juices as it cooks. If you really want to, you can add 1 cup of beef broth, but I promise it’s not necessary.
