Perfect Slow Cooker Pot Roast
Take a look at this mouthwatering pot roast; it’s just the thing to warm you up from the inside out. You can already smell those juicy flavors cooking away!
Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds chuck roast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 onion, quartered
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 large carrots, cut into chunks
- 3-4 medium potatoes, cut into chunks
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- First things first, season that chuck roast with some salt and pepper. Get yourself a skillet and heat up the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, brown all sides of the roast in the skillet. This step adds a deep, rich flavor to the meat, so don’t skip it!
- After browning the roast, place it in the slow cooker. Surround it with the onion, garlic, carrots, and potatoes. These veggies will soak up all those tasty juices.
- Now, in a bowl, combine the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and toss in that bay leaf. Pour this flavorful mix over your roast and veggies.
- Cover your slow cooker, set it on low, and let it cook for about 8 hours. If you're in a rush, you can set it on high for about 4-5 hours, but low and slow is the way to go for tenderness.
- Once it’s done, remove the roast to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it up. Serve it with those delicious veggies and spoon some of that gravy on top.
There you have it! A perfect pot roast that’ll make your house smell amazing and keep everyone satisfied. Enjoy the love and flavor you bring to the table!
