Ingredients

• 3 pounds chuck roast
• 1 large yellow onion
• 4 medium carrots
• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chuck roast for 3-4 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

Peel and slice the onion into thick wedges. Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into 2-inch pieces. Rinse the baby potatoes and leave them whole.

Step 4

Place the onion, carrots, and potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker, creating an even layer.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, tomato paste, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and rosemary.

Step 6

Place the seared chuck roast on top of the vegetables in the slow cooker. Pour the beef broth mixture over the roast and vegetables.

Step 7

Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 5-6 hours, or until the roast is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

Step 8

Once cooked, carefully remove the roast from the slow cooker and place it on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing or shredding.

Step 9

Serve the chuck roast with the cooked vegetables on the side. Spoon the flavorful juices from the slow cooker over the meat and vegetables for added richness.
