Place the cubed roast in the marinara mixture. Cover and cook on low for six hours or until the roast is fork-tender. Proceed to step 4.

How about a recipe for low carb marinara sauce? We don’t get that processed/packaged stuff in th UK (at least it’s not called that) and I’d rather cook from scratch with real food. Thanks.

If you use:
A can or two of crushed tomatoes
a stick of butter
1 onion cut it half
Italian seasoning
Couple gloves of whole garlicCombine in a sauce pan and simmer on low for a hour.
This makes a very delicious sauce.3

I made this last night and while the flavor is there, the meat came out a little more dry than I expected. Perhaps searing the tips first? Also, I had to add a little more salt (I used Himalayan pink) when I plated it. Either way, this is a good and easy recipe. Glad to have found this one.

I didn't use sirloin.....I used chuck or blade steak (depending where you are)
A Little more fat (which is good), and a lot more flavour.
Hope this helps
