Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck steak
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large, thinly sliced yellow onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 10 ounces, sliced white mushrooms
• 1.5 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 3 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef chuck steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer the steak to the crock pot.

Step 3

In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium, add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and mushrooms. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant.

Step 4

Transfer the onion, garlic, and mushrooms to the crock pot, spreading them evenly over the steak.

Step 5

Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce into the crock pot. Place the sprigs of fresh thyme on top.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the steak is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the steak and vegetables from the crock pot using a slotted spoon, and set aside. Discard the thyme sprigs.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the cooking liquid in the crock pot, and turn the heat to high. Let the sauce thicken for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Return the steak and vegetables to the crock pot to heat through for another 5 minutes.

Step 10

Serve the Sussex Style Steak with Mushrooms warm over mashed potatoes, rice, or alongside crusty bread. Enjoy!
