3–4 lbs chuck roast
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup beef broth
1/2 cup red wine (optional)

Directions:
Season chuck roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast for 2–3 minutes per side until deeply browned.
Place roast in slow cooker. Add carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic around the roast.
In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and red wine (if using). Pour over roast and vegetables.

Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours or HIGH for 5–6 hours, until roast is fork-tender and vegetables are soft.
