Instructions
Peel and cut the carrots into large pieces. Wash and quarter the potatoes. Peel and roughly chop the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Season the chuck roast generously on all sides with kosher salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chuck roast for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
Place the seared chuck roast in the bottom of your crock pot.

Pour the mixture evenly over the roast and vegetables in the crock pot.
