Description

A simple and flavorful recipe for fork-tender juicy beef that cooks itself in a slow cooker.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lbs chuck roast
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Pat the chuck roast dry and season all sides with salt and pepper.
  2. In a hot skillet with olive oil, sear the beef on all sides until browned.
  3. Layer the sliced onions and minced garlic at the bottom of your slow cooker.
  4. Place the seared beef over the onions and garlic.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato paste.
  6. Pour the mixture over the beef, ensuring the liquid covers at least half the roast.
