Season the beef chuck roast evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
Peel and quarter the yellow onion. Mince the garlic cloves. Peel and cut the carrots into 2-inch pieces. Chop the celery stalks into 1-inch pieces. Peel and cut the russet potatoes into quarters.
Place the seared roast in the crockery cooker (slow cooker). Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, and potatoes around the roast.
In a mixing bowl, combine the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the roast and vegetables.
Add the fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs on top.
Cover the crockery cooker with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 5-6 hours, until the roast is fork-tender.
Once the roast is cooked, remove it and the vegetables from the cooker and place them on a serving platter. Discard the thyme and rosemary sprigs.
Skim excess fat from the cooking liquid in the crockery cooker. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the cooking liquid.
Turn the crockery cooker to HIGH and let the liquid cook for 5-10 minutes until it thickens into a gravy.
Serve the pot roast and vegetables hot, drizzled with the thickened gravy.
