Slow Cooker Beef Roast with Mushrooms & Onions

• 總時間: 1 day 6 hours 45 minutes

食材

3 lb (1.4 kg) beef chuck roast

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 large yellow onion, sliced

8 oz (225g) cremini or button mushrooms, sliced

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 ½ cups beef broth (low sodium)

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

2 tablespoons cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (optional, for thickening)

Fresh parsley for garnish

步驟

Pat the roast dry and season generously with salt and pepper.

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 2–3 minutes per side.

Transfer roast to the slow cooker. Add sliced onions, mushrooms, and garlic on top.

In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, thyme, and rosemary. Pour over the roast and veggies.

Cover and cook on LOW for 8–9 hours or HIGH for 5–6 hours, until beef is fork-tender.

Optional: For a thicker gravy, remove 1/2 cup of liquid from the slow cooker, mix with cornstarch slurry, then stir back in. Let cook another 10–15 minutes.

Shred or slice the roast and serve with the rich mushroom-onion sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.
