Ingredients
- 4 trips Bacon
- 4 pounds beef chuck roast boneless
- 2 pounds carrots
- 1 ½ pounds baby potatoes
- 1 large sweet onion
- 5-6 cloves garlic smashed
- 4-5 prigs fresh thyme
- 2-3 prigs fresh Rosemary
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons beef base
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Set out a large 6-8 quart electric slow cooker. Lay 4 strips of bacon across the bottom of the crock. Cut the beef roast into 3 to 4 large pieces and place them over the bacon.
- Prep the vegetables: Peel and slice the onion into large wedges. Peel the carrots and cut into 2-3 inch segments. Peel and smash the garlic cloves.
- Arrange the carrots, potatoes, onion wedges, garlic cloves, thyme sprigs, rosemary sprigs, and bay leaves around the beef chuck roast. Pack them in if needed.
- Sprinkle a generous teaspoon of salt over the top and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Add the beef base to the pot crock. Then pour in the water and Worcestershire sauce. Cover and set on high for 7 to 9 hours, or on low for 11 to 14 hours.
- The fact that the crock will be so full means this recipe will take a long time to cook. If you happen to be around at the 3 to 4 hour mark, gently turn the vegetables so that those on top have a chance to cook down in the juices.
- Once the beef is fork-tender and easy to shred, it's ready to serve.
Notes
- Let the meat and veggies cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Keep leftover pot roast in the fridge for up to 4 days.
