Ingredients:
2 tablespoons Olive oil, divided
1 (approx. 3 lb) Chuck Roast
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium Yellow Onion, peeled, halved and cut into thick slices
5 Garlic Cloves, minced (1 1/2 tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups Beef Broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 Tablespoon minced Fresh Thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried)
1 Tablespoon minced Fresh Rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried)
2.5 lbs small Yukon Gold Potatoes, left whole
5 medium Carrots (about 1 lb), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 1/2 tablespoons Cornstarch mixed with 3 tablespoons beef broth, for thickening gravy
2 tablespoons chopped Fresh Parsley (optional)
Instructions:
~ Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dab roast dry with paper towels, season all over with salt and pepper.
~ Sear roast in skillet until browned on both sides (about 4-5 minutes per side). Transfer roast to slow cooker. Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil to skillet. Add onion and sauté 2 minutes, add garlic and sauté 30 seconds longer. Pour onion mixture over roast in slow cooker.
~ Return skillet to heat, pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme and rosemary, and cook about 15 seconds, just long enough to scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Remove from heat.
~ Layer potatoes and carrots over onion layer in slow cooker, pour beef broth evenly over top then season with salt & pepper.
~ Cover slow cooker and cook on low heat until roast and vegetables are tender, about 8-9 hours (or 3-4 hours on high, and then 2 hours on low).
~ Remove roast and vegetables, shred roast (discard fat) and cut potatoes, if desired.
~ For gravy - pour broth from slow cooker through a fine mesh strainer into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat. Whisk cornstarch with 3 tablespoons beef broth then pour into saucepan. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, let simmer until you reach desired consistency.
~ Plate roast and vegetables, our gravy over top and sprinkle with parsley. Enjoy!
