Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roast

    Season the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Meat

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the roast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer to a slow cooker.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Transfer the sautéed vegetables to the slow cooker with the roast. Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and add bay leaves and thyme.

  5. 5

    Slow Cook

    Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the meat is tender and shreds easily.

  6. 6

    Make Gravy

    Once cooked, remove the roast and vegetables. Skim excess fat from the liquid in the slow cooker. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of the liquid with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch mixed with water to thicken into gravy.
