This roast also works well in the crock pot. Brown the roast, then place in crock pot with the next 5 ingredients. I let it cook on low all day, then stir the next 2 ingredients into the broth, switch to high and let cook until thickened (approx. 20 min.) if serving with gravy. Serve with yellow or Spanish rice. Sometimes I don't make the gravy and instead shred the meat and use it for burritios, etc....Cooking time is based on directions below....Omit the gravy step if you would like to use this roast shredded for burritos, tacos, etc......that's actually how I usually use it. :)
Ingredients:
1 (3 -3 1/2 lb) boneless beef chuck roast
