ANOTHER BEEF SLOW COOKER POT ROAST -- HUBBY & KIDS FAVORITE
This recipe does not use any processed items -like soups, mixes... The family loves this-especially the brown potatoes that cook with the meat-the measurements are approximate....Potatoes used are about the size of a small lime-if you use larger ones, the cut in half. I like yukon gold poatoes for this. If you see that the top of the roast is drying out while cooking tehn baste.

Steps:
- Place a large skillet on stove top and heat over medium high heat (perferably a non-stick skillet).
- Add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil.
- Generously sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic salt on all sides of the pot roast.
- Place roast in hot oil on a skillet and let it sear on that side for 2 minutes. Flip the roast over and sear the other side for 2 minutes.
- Depending on the shape of your pot roast, you can sear the other sides if you choose.
- Spray the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray and place your seared pot roast in the slow cooker.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the hot skillet. Add onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Using a spatula, scrape the "brown bits" (aka the burnt bits) off the bottom of the skillet as you cook the vegetables (these bits add so much flavor!).
- Cook for about 3 minutes or until the vegetables start to soften.
- Add garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more.
- Add the vegetables to the slow cooker, spreading the vegetables all around the roast.
- Pour in the beef broth, being sure not to pour it directly on the roast or vegetables because you just cooked them in delicious flavors. Try to pour the beef broth on the sides as much as possible.
- Pour the Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce directly on the roast. Sprinkle thyme and rosemary evenly around the meat and vegetables.
- Place the lid on top of the slow cooker and set timer for 8-10 hours on low heat (it will vary based on your slow cooker - mine is done in 8 hours, but some will take longer) or 4-5 hours on high heat (I highly recommend cooking this roast on low - I have never had it turn out as well when I have cooked it on high. Also, you want your house to smell good alllllll day long).
- Remove roast from slow cooker and slice into pieces (it should pretty much fall apart by this point).
- Serve with mashed potatoes and the cooked carrots on the side.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use bone-in chuck roast instead of boneless chuck roast.
- Sear the roast in a skillet over medium-high heat before adding it to the slow cooker. This will help to brown the meat and add flavor.
- Add a variety of vegetables to the slow cooker along with the roast. This will help to create a flavorful broth and make the roast more tender.
- Season the roast generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the roast on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours. The longer you cook the roast, the more tender it will become.
- Let the roast rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the meat more tender.

This beef slow cooker pot roast is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. The roast is cooked in a flavorful broth with vegetables, and it is so tender that it falls apart easily. Serve the roast with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite sides.
