Ingredients

• 3 pounds pork shoulder roast or beef chuck roast
• 1 large yellow onion, chopped
• 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Season the pork roast or beef with salt, black pepper, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

Place the chopped onion, carrots, baby potatoes, and minced garlic in the bottom of the crock pot.

Step 4

Place the seared roast on top of the vegetables.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, mix beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the roast and vegetables.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 8 hours or until the meat is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the roast and vegetables from the crock pot and place them on a serving platter, tented with foil to keep warm.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Add it to the crock pot's remaining juices and stir to thicken into a gravy. Cook on high for 5-10 minutes, whisking occasionally, until the sauce reaches your desired thickness.

Step 9

Serve the roast sliced or shredded with the vegetables and gravy on the side.
