Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 orange bell pepper, diced
- 3 stalks celery, diced
Main
- 3-pound beef chuck roast
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
Sauce Mix
- ½ cup tomato sauce
- ½ cup BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ cup water
Garnish
- Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Vegetables: Start by dicing the onion, orange bell pepper, and celery. Place these vegetables evenly at the bottom of your slow cooker, creating a flavorful bed for the roast.
- Place the Roast: Position the 3-pound beef chuck roast directly on top of the diced vegetables in the slow cooker, ensuring it rests evenly for uniform cooking.
- Mix the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, tomato sauce, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, crumbled beef bouillon cubes, dried thyme, and water until well combined to form a rich sauce.
- Pour the Sauce Over: Evenly pour the prepared sauce mixture over the top of the beef roast, allowing the flavors to infuse throughout the cooking process.
- Slow Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on the LOW setting for 6 to 8 hours. The roast should become incredibly tender and easy to shred when done.
- Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, garnish the pot roast with fresh parsley and serve it hot over creamy mashed potatoes for a fulfilling and classic comfort meal experience.
Notes
- For added depth of flavor, you can sear the beef chuck roast in a hot skillet before placing it in the crockpot, though this step is optional.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow some liquid to evaporate.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
- This recipe pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or buttered noodles.
