Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef chuck roast
- 4 large carrots
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Instructions
Season the beef chuck roast with salt, pepper, paprika, dried thyme, and dried rosemary on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on each side for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
Peel and cut the carrots into 2-inch pieces. Wash and quarter the potatoes. Peel and cut the onion into large chunks. Mince the garlic cloves.
Place the carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic into the bottom of the crock pot to create a vegetable bed for the roast.
Lay the seared beef chuck roast on top of the vegetables.
Pour the beef broth, red wine, and Worcestershire sauce over the roast and vegetables.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and shreddable.
Once cooked, remove the roast and vegetables from the crock pot and place them on a serving platter. Tent with foil to keep warm.
For the gravy, strain the cooking liquid into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering liquid, stirring until the gravy thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve the beef roast and vegetables with the gravy drizzled on top.
