Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef roast (chuck or round) Substitute: Brisket for a slightly different flavor.
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Base – Start by placing the sliced onion at the bottom of your slow cooker to create a flavorful base.
- Step 2: Add the Beef – Lay the seasoned beef roast on top of the onions, pressing down to ensure contact.
- Step 3: Pour in the Broth – Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce over the beef, ensuring liquids cover at least half of the beef.
- Step 4: Season the Brisket – Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt evenly across the beef.
- Step 5: Set Up for Cooking – Cover the slow cooker and set it to LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 to 5 hours.
- Step 6: Shred the Beef – Once cooking is done, remove the beef and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
- Step 7: Strain the Broth – Strain the onions from the broth, returning only the liquid back to the slow cooker.
- Step 8: Thicken the Gravy – Mix cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry and stir into broth to thicken.
- Step 9: Serve and Enjoy – Layer a slice of bread, top with mashed potatoes, shredded beef, and ladle gravy over the dish.
Notes
Choose quality beef for optimal tenderness; don’t skip the slurry for thick gravy; rest beef before shredding to retain juices.
