Then add the seared roast to the slow cooker bowl. Briefly sauté the onion and garlic in the same skillet as the roast, then add the red wine or broth to deglaze and scrape up the browned bits.

When the cooking time is done and the beef roast is tender, remove the sprigs of herbs and serve. You can garnish with more fresh herbs and make gravy for an extra special meal.

3 key tips

1. A chuck roast makes the best most tender beef.

2. Low and slow is the best way to tenderize a roast, so I don't recommend the high setting if possible.

3. Check out my gluten free gravy or paleo gravy with this recipe, so yummy!

Enjoy!
