Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 pounds of beef chuck roast
  • 4 medium carrots chopped
  • 4 medium potatoes cubed
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Ingredients: Start by chopping your vegetables (carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic) into bite-sized pieces as you prepare to build your flavorful base.
  • Sear the Roast (Optional): For an extra depth of flavor, consider searing the beef chuck roast in a hot pan with a little oil until browned on all sides. This step is not essential but can enhance the final result!
  • Layer the Ingredients: Place the beef chuck roast at the bottom of the slow cooker. Surround it with the chopped carrots, cubed potatoes, chopped onion, and minced garlic.
  • Mix the Broth: In a mixing bowl, combine the beef broth, salt, pepper, thyme, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to mix all the flavors together.
  • Pour Over the Ingredients: Carefully pour the broth mixture over the roast and vegetables in the slow cooker, ensuring everything is well coated.
  • Cook: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until the meat is fork-tender.
  • Serve: Once cooked, remove the roast from the slow cooker and slice it. Serve warm with the delicious vegetables and broth!
