Ingredients
- 2 tbsp extra light olive oil or high heat cooking oil
- 3 lb beef chuck roast cut into 2 inch cubes
- 1 large yellow onion diced
- 4 large carrots cut into bite size pieces
- 1 lb yukon potatoes cut into bite size pieces

- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp fine sea salt or added to taste
- 2 bay leaves
- parsley finely chopped, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet with oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beef in a single layer and saute until browned on both sides. Don't crowd the pan and cook beef in batches if needed. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté the onion until lightly browned, adding more oil if needed.
- Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker. Set it on high for 4 hours or on low for 7 hours.
- Remove bay leaves, season to taste, and serve garnished with parsley if desired.
Notes
- Slow Cooker beef stew can be made ahead, refrigerated or frozen and reheated later. Try preparing it the night before and follow these tips for storing and serving.
- Refrigerate: Refrigerate cooled stew in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Once cooled, store the stew in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 4 months, leaving an inch of space in the container for expansion.
- How to Reheat: Thaw overnight, and then warm in a pot over medium heat until heated through.
