Ingredients
- 1 tbsp oil
- 3 lb chuck roast
- 1/2 tsp salt to taste
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder to taste
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 oz onion soup mix
- 1/8 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp parsley
OPTIONAL
- carrots baby or peeled and diced

Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Generously season chuck roast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place roast in pan and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until brown. Turn off skillet, remove roast, and place in the bottom of a slow cooker.
- Add beef broth to the skillet and stir to break up any drippings from the bottom of the pan. Pour drippings and broth over the roast in the slow cooker. Add worcestershire sauce to the slow cooker.
- In a small bowl, mix onion soup mix, parsley, and thyme together. Sprinkle over the top of the roast.
- Cover slow cooker and allow to cook for 8-10 hours on LOW, or until meat is very tender.
OPTIONAL
- Half way through cooking, using tongs lift roast and add potatoes and carrots to the bottom of the slow cooker. Place roast on top of potatoes and carrots and allow to finish cooking, approximately 4 hours or until meat and vegetables are tender.
