🕰️ How to Make It
Step 1: Sear the Roast
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned. This step locks in flavor and creates that crave-worthy crust.
Step 2: Build the Base
Place carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker. Lay the seared roast on top.
Step 3: Add Flavor
Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the roast, then pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Add rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 4: Slow Cook It
Cover and cook on low for 8–10 hours or high for 4–6 hours until the meat is fall-apart tender.
Step 5: Optional Gravy
To thicken the sauce, mix cornstarch with water and stir it into the juices in the slow cooker. Cook on high for 15–20 more minutes.
