Cut the beef chuck roast into 1-inch cubes and season with salt and black pepper.
In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add beef in batches, ensuring not to crowd the pot, and brown on all sides. Remove the beef onto a plate once browned.
In the same pot, add the diced onion, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the diced carrots and celery, and cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the beef to the pot and add in the cubed butternut squash.
Pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes, stirring to combine. Add the bay leaf, fresh thyme, and fresh rosemary.
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours until the beef is fork-tender.
Taste the stew and adjust any seasonings as necessary. Stir in fresh parsley before serving.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
