The Ultimate Crock Pot Roast Recipe

The beef roast has a succulent flavor, thanks to slow cooking. Tender meat combined with vegetables plus broth develops a savory dish. It is ideal for family dinners or meal prep for the week.

Ingredients

Three to four pounds beef chuck roast

Four medium carrots, peeled and cut into two-inch pieces

Three medium potatoes, diced

One medium onion quartered

Four cloves garlic, minced

Two cups beef broth

Two tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

One teaspoon dried thyme

One teaspoon salt adjust to taste

Half teaspoon black pepper

Two tablespoons olive oil (optional, for searing)

Instructions

Prepare the vegetables: Peel carrots and chop them; potatoes next to onion. Mince the garlic.

Sear the Roast (optional): Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add salt and pepper to the roast, then sear all sides to make them brown (around three to four minutes per side). The step adds depth, but skip it if you have little time.

Layer Ingredients in the Crockpot: Place carrots, potatoes, and onions along with garlic at the bottom of the crockpot. Put the seared roast on top.

Add Liquid: Pour beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the roast. Sprinkle dried thyme on top.

Cook: Cover and cook on low for eight to ten hours or on high for four to six hours till meat becomes fork-tender.

Serve: Take out the roast and vegetables. Cut the beef into slices. Distribute with vegetables—drizzle broth over the top.
