Ingredients

• 3 1/2 pound beef chuck roast
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper
• Montreal Steak Seasoning
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 envelope Recipe Secrets Onion Soup Mix
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cups beef stock or broth
• 1/2 cup dry red wine (I use cabernet Sauvignon)
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon dry thyme or 1 tablespoon of fresh
• 2 bay leaves
• 5 medium red potatoes, quartered
• 1 yellow onion, quartered
• 4 cups baby carrots
• 2 ribs celery, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle the chuck roast with Montreal Steak Seasoning then lightly coat with flour that has been seasoned with salt and pepper.
With the cooker’s lid off, heat oil on HIGH or “brown,” until sizzling. Place the floured roast in the cooker and brown on each side.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, add the Recipe Secrets Onion Soup Mix, Worcestershire sauce, beef stock or broth, red wine and flour. Whisk until the flour is dissolved.
Add the vegetables, garlic, thyme and bay leaves to the cooker.
Pour gravy mixture over all. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 9 hours or until tender.
