Ingredients:

2-1/2 to 3 lb Beef Chuck Roast

1 TBSP Dried Parsley

1 TBSP Dried Italian Seasoning

Directions:

1.       Set the roast out of the refrigerator while you prep your potatoes, carrots, and onion.

2.       Once you are done prepping your carrots, potatoes, and onions, heat a 12” skillet and add olive oil. Season the roast with salt and pepper on all sides. Sear the roast for a couple of minutes on all sides.

3.       Spray your slow cooker with cooking spray, then place the carrots, potatoes, and onion in the bottom.

4.       Add the dried parsley, Italian Seasoning, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and minced garlic cloves.

5.       Once the roast is seared on all sides, lay it on top of the potatoes, carrots, and onion in the slow cooker. Season with more salt and pepper if desired.

6.       Cook on high for 2 hours, then switch the heat to low for 4 hours.

7.       Remove the roast from the slow cooker and place on a cutting board to rest for 15 minutes.

8.       After the roast has rested, slice on the bias. It will be very tender.

9.       Serve alongside the potatoes and carrots.

10.   Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
