Instructions

Add the onion, sweet potatoes, carrots and beets to a large slow cooker.
Whisk the balsamic vinegar & olive oil together in a small bowl.
Mix in the chopped rosemary, thyme, steak seasoning & crushed garlic.
Brush this mixture over the beef chuck.
On the stovetop, heat a large heavy pot, or cast iron skillet, over medium heat.
Add the bacon and cook until crisp.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
Heat the remaining bacon grease in the pot over high heat.
Add the beef chuck, and sear for about one minute on each side.
Remove the beef chuck from the pot and place in the slow cooker.
Add the red wine to deglaze the pot, while scraping the bottom for any bacon garlic herb bits left behind.
Pour the reduced red wine into the slow cooker with the beef broth.
Cover and cook on low 8-10 hours.
Serve topped with the cooked bacon.
