I want to cook a roast today and it's frozen. It's 2.5 lbs. and I wanted to know do I cook it on high or low and for how long? I'm new to crock pots!

You aren't going to be eating it today! I wouldn't cook a frozen roast on high, I would cook it on low. It will probably take 6-8 hours.

I cook all of my meat in the crock pot frozen. My roast I do brown first in a pan and then throw frozen in a crock pot.

I put it on about 6 in the morning and cook it all day.

Ok, so it's 12:30 here so should be done between 6:30 and 8:30 on low?

Cook it on high, add an envelope of gravy mix....it will be done in time for supper.

Yep!

Sorry to disappoint ya'll but, you should cook a frozen roast. For food safety, you should defrost it in the refrigerator first, then cook it. The meat stays too long at an unsafe temperature (above 40 and below 140 F), for far too long if you try to cook it frozen. Ever get the 'stomach flu'? It was probably food poisoning.

I always thaw mine for this reason.

Funny you would say that about the stomach flu, I always want to tell my friend that when she says they have the stomach flu AGAIN. She often eats out.
