Ingredients

• 3 lbs beef chuck roast
• 1 large yellow onion, diced
• 3 medium carrots, sliced
• 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
• 1.5 cups beef broth
• 3 tbsp prepared yellow mustard
• 2 tsp curry powder
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1.5 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp cold water
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the beef chuck roast dry with paper towels. Season all over with 1 teaspoon of salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast for 3-4 minutes on each side until a deep golden crust forms. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add diced onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the yellow mustard, curry powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Step 5

In the slow cooker, layer the carrots and baby potatoes at the bottom. Place the seared beef roast on top of the vegetables.

Step 6

Spread the mustard spice mixture evenly over the top of the beef roast.

Step 7

Pour the beef broth into the slow cooker, making sure not to wash away the mustard mixture.

Step 8

Add the sautéed onions on top of the beef roast.

Step 9

Cover and cook on low for 8 hours (or high for 4-5 hours) until the beef is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

Step 10

Once cooked, remove the beef and vegetables from the slow cooker and transfer to a serving platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.

Step 11

To make the gravy, strain the cooking liquid from the slow cooker into a small saucepan. Bring it to a simmer over medium heat.

Step 12

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water to form a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the simmering liquid, cooking until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 13

Serve the beef roast with the vegetables, and drizzle the gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
