Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 to 4 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For searing the meat
  • 4 pieces carrots, cut into chunks
  • 4 pieces potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 1 whole onion, quartered
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (make sure it’s Halal-approved)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting your carrots and potatoes into uniform chunks so they cook evenly. Quarter your onion and mince the garlic.
  2. Rub the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef roast. Sear on all sides until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  2. Place the seared roast in the crock pot. Arrange the carrots, potatoes, onion, and minced garlic around it.
  3. Pour the beef broth over the ingredients in the crock pot. Add the Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and rosemary on top of everything.
  4. Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
Serving
  1. After cooking, remove the roast and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve with the succulent gravy drizzled over your veggies and potatoes.

Notes

Let the roast cool completely before storing in airtight containers. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days and can be frozen for up to three months. Reheat gently to enjoy.
