Instructions

  • Season each side of the 3-4 pound chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. In a large skillet add 2 tablespoons olive oil and turn to medium-high heat. Sear each side of the roast for 3-4 minutes until it gets a golden brown crust.
  • Place the roast into the slow cooker and add 1 (10.5-ounce) can beef consommé, 1 (14.5-ounce) can beef broth, 1 onion sliced, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce.
