Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 1 large yellow onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups beef broth
• 0.5 cups red wine (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon thyme, dried
• 1 teaspoon rosemary, dried
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the tomato paste and all-purpose flour, cooking for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the beef broth and red wine (if using), stirring constantly to create a smooth sauce. Add Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and rosemary. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Place the sliced mushrooms in the bottom of the crock pot. Lay the seared beef roast on top of the mushrooms.

Step 7

Pour the skillet sauce over the beef and mushrooms, ensuring the beef is well-coated with the sauce.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 8 hours or high heat for 4-5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.

Step 9

Once cooked, taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 10

Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread.
