Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by heating a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chuck roast, searing it for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it forms a golden brown crust.
  2. While the beef is searing, wash and peel (if desired) your Yukon Gold potatoes, then chop them into evenly sized chunks.
  3. In your slow cooker, place the seared chuck roast at the bottom. Layer the chopped Yukon Gold potatoes evenly around and on top of the meat.
  4. Melt the butter mixed with 1-2 minced garlic cloves, then pour this over the beef and potatoes. Add beef broth to cover the ingredients partially.
  5. Cover your slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 7-8 hours or HIGH for 4-5 hours.
  6. Once done, carefully transfer the contents to a serving platter, drizzle some of the sauce over the top, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
