- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Yellow onion, sliced

Instructions
Season the chuck roast on all sides with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. This step is optional but adds depth of flavor.
Place the sliced onion, carrots, and red potatoes in the bottom of your crock pot.
Transfer the seared roast on top of the vegetables.
Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the roast.
Add the bay leaf and fresh thyme sprigs to the crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the roast is tender and easily falls apart with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Shred the roast if desired.
Serve the roast with the cooked vegetables and a ladle of the savory juices from the crock pot.
