Slow Cooked Beef in Onion Sauce (Crock Pot)

This is a really flavorful roast,slow cooked in fabulous spices and red wine. I usually serve mine over noodles, but occasionally I'll change off to something else, like rice and recently I served it over garlic mashed potatoes, YUMMO! You'll find your favorite way too! Choose a wine that you would drink with the meal. Don't cook with a wine that you wouldn't drink yourself.
