3. Remove from the fridge for at least 30 minutes prior to commencing cooking
4. In a hot pan brown the outside of the meat prior to cooking (if the cut of meat has a layer of fat)
5. Add to slow cooker for 5 hours on high or place in the oven to cook 15-20 minutes per 500 grams at 180 degrees (resulting in a rare cooked meat)
