Oven Method:
- Preheat oven: to 325ยฐF (160ยฐC).
- Sear the meat: Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and rosemary. Sear on all sides until browned (about 4โ5 minutes per side).
- Add aromatics: Add onions and garlic; cook 1โ2 minutes.
- Add liquids: Pour in beef broth, wine, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, scraping up browned bits from the bottom.
- Add veggies: Place potatoes and carrots around the roast.
- Cover & bake: Cover tightly with a lid or foil and bake for 3โ4 hours, or until the roast is fork-tender.
- Optional gravy: Remove the roast and veggies. Whisk 2 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water, add to the pan juices, and simmer until thickened.
Slow Cooker Method:
- Sear the roast (optional but adds flavor).
- Add roast, onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes to the slow cooker.
- Pour in broth, wine, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 8โ9 hours or HIGH for 4โ5 hours, until tender.

๐ฅ Serving Tip:
Serve hot with the rich gravy spooned over the top โ and maybe a side of warm bread to soak it all up. ๐
Would you like me to give you a garlic herb version or a red wine mushroom version next? Both make the roast even more flavorful!
