- 2 pounds beef chuck roast
- 1 pound baby potatoes
- 1 large onion
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients – Cut the beef chuck roast into large chunks, about 2 inches each. Chop the onion and mince the garlic while washing the baby potatoes thoroughly; there's no need to peel them.
- Step 2: Layer the Slow Cooker – Place the beef chunks at the bottom of the slow cooker, followed by the chopped onion and minced garlic. Next, add the baby potatoes on top, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Step 3: Mix the Broth and Seasonings – In a separate bowl, whisk together the beef broth, soy sauce, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Once combined, pour this mixture over the layered ingredients in the slow cooker.
- Step 4: Cook Low and Slow – Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set the temperature to low. Cook for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
- Step 5: Serve and Garnish – Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the lid and stir gently. Transfer the beef and potatoes to a serving platter, spooning the juices over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
