2. Arrange Ingredients in the Slow Cooker
- Place the carrots, potatoes, and sliced onions in the bottom of the slow cooker. Set the seared roast on top of the vegetables, then add garlic.
3. Add Broth and Seasonings
- Pour beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the roast and vegetables. Add rosemary and thyme sprigs for an aromatic touch.
4. Slow Cook to Perfection
- Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender and easily pulls apart. If you’re in a time crunch, you can cook on high for 4-5 hours, but low and slow brings out the best texture.
Tips for the Perfect Pot Roast
- Brown the Meat First: This step adds a ton of flavor and depth to the dish, making the final meal even more delicious.
- Use Root Vegetables: Carrots and potatoes hold up well to the long cooking time, soaking up all the flavors.
- Don’t Rush the Process: If you have the time, slow-cooking on low heat results in the most tender, flavorful pot roast.
