Pioneer Woman Sirloin Tip Roast Crock Pot Ingredients
- 3 pounds sirloin tip roast, twine removed
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 2 cups baby carrots
- 1 large yellow onion, sliced into rings
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup beef broth
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
How To Make Pioneer Woman Sirloin Tip Roast
- Layer the Vegetables: In the bottom of a large slow cooker, spread the baby potatoes, baby carrots, and sliced onion in an even layer.
- Add the Roast: Top the vegetables with the cubes of butter, then place the sirloin tip roast directly on top.
- Make the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Combine and Cook: Slowly pour the sauce mixture over the top of the roast. Close the lid and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender.
- Shred and Serve: Use two forks to shred the meat directly in the slow cooker. Gently stir the shredded meat with the vegetables and the rich juices (au jus). Serve hot.
Recipe Tips
- How to get the most tender roast? The recipe is correct—for a tougher cut of meat like a sirloin tip, the low and slow cooking method is essential. Cooking it on the LOW setting for the full 8-10 hours is the key to breaking down the connective tissues for a perfectly tender result.
- Can I sear the meat first? While this is a simple “dump and go” recipe, for an even deeper, more complex flavor, you can sear the roast on all sides in a hot, oiled skillet before placing it in the slow cooker.
- How can I thicken the gravy? This recipe creates a thin, flavorful au jus. If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can make a slurry by whisking 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of cold water. Stir this into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking on the HIGH setting.
- What’s the best cut for this recipe? A sirloin tip roast is a lean, economical cut that becomes wonderfully tender when slow-cooked. A chuck roast is an excellent and more marbled substitute that will also work perfectly.
What To Serve With Sirloin Tip Roast
This is a hearty, one-pot meal with the potatoes and carrots already included. The rich au jus is perfect for serving with:
- Warm, crusty dinner rolls for sopping up the sauce
- A simple green salad with a bright vinaigrette
- Southern-style cornbread
How To Store Sirloin Tip Roast
- Refrigerate: Let the cooked dish cool down, then transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. The flavor is often even better the next day.
- Freeze: Freezing is not highly recommended due to the potatoes, which can become mealy in texture when thawed. However, the meat itself can be frozen separately from the vegetables.

FAQs
Why is my sirloin tip roast still tough after 8 hours?
A tough roast almost always just needs more time. All slow cookers can vary slightly in temperature. If your roast isn’t fall-apart tender, just put the lid back on and let it continue cooking on LOW, checking for tenderness every 45-60 minutes.
Do I need to trim the fat from the roast?
It’s a good idea to trim any excessive, thick pieces of hard fat from the outside, but be sure to leave some fat on. The fat will render down during the long cook time, adding a significant amount of flavor and moisture to the meat and the gravy.
Can I use a different kind of potato?
Yes. While baby potatoes are great because they hold their shape, you can also use quartered Yukon Gold or red potatoes. It’s best to avoid starchy Russet potatoes, as they can sometimes fall apart during the long cooking time.
