For a richer flavor, sear the beef roast on all sides in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. Add a bay leaf to the slow cooker for an extra layer of aromatic complexity; remember to remove it before serving. Serve over white rice with a side of sweet plantains for a truly authentic Cuban experience.
