Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Equipment

  • 1 Skillet (for searing)

Method
 

  1. Pat the roast dry and rub with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sear in a skillet if desired.
  2. Transfer to the Crockpot. Mix beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce, then pour over beef.
  3. Cook on low for 480 minutes, until beef is tender.
  4. Shred the beef and return it to the juices in the Crockpot.

Searing the beef enhances flavor but can be skipped for a simpler recipe.
