is there a such a thing as over crock potting deer roast

My wife prefers it crockpotted. I always slice and then put back in the liquid before serving.  It seems to help reabsorb some of it.  I might try the searing next time.

Just watched a show on "searing" there is 0 proof that it holds in any more moisture

I love a good roast, but I don't crock pot.mix up some flower,  salt and red an black pepper. Dredge meat in flour. Put in skillet with bacon grease. When wet with grease dredge again Brown meat til crusty .r meat.
Add onion and celery chopped to your skillet you just seared meat in, including drippings.  Cook til onions clear. Put onions an celery in a baking dish with three cups beef broth. Add parsnips...oven at 425degrees. With foil on top.  Bake one hour. After hour, add taters quartered.  Bake another fourth five mins.remove and add carrots. Cook fifteen or twenty. Remove, let rest ten mins sprinkle rosemary. And grate some horseradish. .ENJOY

It's the temp, get it too hot and it will dry out.  Get a Dutch oven without legs and use your oven at 180 until tender.

It does seem like the longer time you have to cook low, the better.

Wheels, are you searing it prior to crock pot?  We do a quick sear along with less than a cup of fluid and it comes out moist and tender.

x2  I sear for flavor on thick steaks and pulled pork but I've never thought it really held moisture in the meat
