  • 1 (3 lb.) chuck roast
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil, divided
  • 1 tbsp. salt
  • 1 tbsp. pepper
  • 1 large yellow onion, peeled and halved, then cut into thick slices

  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and onion; sauté for 2 minutes. Add garlic; sauté for another minute, then pour onion mixture over the pot roast.
  4. In same skillet, add beef broth, Worcestershire, thyme, and rosemary; let warm for a minute or so, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Then remove from heat.
  5. Layer potatoes and carrots over top of pot roast in slow cooker, then pour the broth mixture over top and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Place lid on slow cooker and set on low. Cook for 8-9 hours, until carrots and potatoes are soft.
  7. Shred beef, removing any fat, and serve over your favorite white bread or whipped potatoes, or enjoy the beef and vegetables as they are! Don’t forget to garnish with fresh parsley!
