Not bite sized. if it were that, it would have said that. Cut into about 4
oz. pieces or whatever amount of meat you would normally eat. The meat will
cook much quicker that way.

I would call that a stew... not that there's much difference between
pot roast and stew except for the size of the meat pieces... I would
have cut the meat to smaller stew size, especially for a slow cooker.
Did you brown those meat chunks first, if not there wouldn't be much
flavor. That's why I gave my crock pot away, it couldn't brown
anything, and was a top of the line Crock Pot, the largest they made
at the time. I think a Crock Pot is pretty much worthless, at those
low temperatures it's really not cooking, it can only warm food. And
if I need to brown meat first in an ordinary pot then I may as well
finish in the ordinary pot... why make an extra thing to clean.
I have no problem maintaining a very low simmer on a stove top. I
have a gas stove with three different size burners on the stove top...
on the smallest burner at the lowest setting it can do as well if not
better than a Crock Pot. My stove can be set to turn on and off at a
set time, only I've never used that feature as I like to be fully
involved with my cooking... I like to add ingredients according how
long they need to cook and also change the cooking temperature as
needed, I'll raise the temperature when adding ingredients and lower
the temperature as ingredients become cooked.
To be perfectly honest I think all Crock Pots are worthless pieces of
shit, made for those dingbats who can't cook a lick. Crock Potting is
cooking like Paint by Numbers is art.

If so concerned with *quicker* cooking time you really ought to dine
at a FAST food drive thru... no normal brained person makes pot roast
with chopped up lumps of meat... supposed to use a whole ROAST, that's
why it's called pot ROAST! You made a fercocktah stew with over sized
stew meat... too big for stew, too small for roast. Probably why your
gardener likes your medium sized ass... really can't blame him, how
often does he baste you? LOL

I don't like Crock Pots either and don't use them ay more with a few
exceptions. I did not brown the beef. I don't notice a difference in flavor.
