This recipe is perfect for those lazy Sundays when you want to enjoy a scrumptious meal without spending the entire day slaving in the kitchen. With just a few ingredients, a slow cooker, and your willingness to let it do all the hard work, you’ll have a dinner that even the toughest food critics will have a hard time resisting. Let’s break it down:
Ingredients:
- 3 to 5 pounds beef chuck roast
- 1 bottle of Malbec red wine
- 4 cups beef broth
- 4 medium carrots, chopped
- 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 large onion, quartered
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
Instructions:
- First things first, rub that glorious beef chuck roast with salt and pepper like it’s your best buddy. This will help it accept all the flavors you’re about to throw its way.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef roast on all sides until it’s a beautiful golden brown. (This is the part where you can pretend you’re a professional chef.)
- Once your roast is seared, transfer it to the slow cooker. Add the chopped carrots, diced potatoes, quartered onions, and minced garlic right on top.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the beef broth, thyme, rosemary, and Malbec. Pour this rich concoction all over the roast and veggies. Your kitchen is about to smell like a five-star restaurant!
- Cover the slow cooker and let it work its magic on low for about 8 hours. If you’re in a hurry (who isn’t?), you can set it to high for 4 hours – but trust us, patience is key here.
- Once the timer goes off and your home smells like heaven, shred the beef with two forks, mix it back with the veggies, and serve it up with that delicious gravy you’ve just created. Voilà, you’re a culinary genius!
Serve this rockstar meal with some crusty bread to soak up all that delicious gravy, and watch as your family and friends fall head over heels in love with your cooking. Who knew being a chef could feel this good?
