Equipment

1 Slow cooker

Ingredients

2 lbs chuck roast, cut into 1 in pieces
½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
4 cups beef broth
4 medium carrots, sliced into 1 inch pieces or a couple handfuls of baby carrots
2 handfuls of fingerling potatoes, halved if too large
1 white onion, cut into 1 inch chunks
2 stalks of celery, sliced into 1 inch pieces
1 tb Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp thyme
½ tsp oregano

Instructions

Heat 2 tb of vegetable oil in a pan over medium high heat. Place beef chunks into a bowl and toss with salt and pepper.
Add the meat to the pan in batches and be sure not to overcrowd. Brown on each side for about 30 seconds - 1 minute. Remove and transfer to the slow cooker.
Add all the ingredients except the cornstarch to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 7 ½ to 8 hours or high for 3 ½ to 4 hours.
