Instructions

Sear the chuck roast then place in a slow cooker. Arrange the potatoes, carrots, onion, and garlic on top of the roast. Stir in the salt, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, thyme, and broth.

Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Pot roast is done when it's fork tender and shreds easily.

For a thick gravy, stir in a cornstarch slurry during the last hour of cooking. Simply whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water until smooth.
