Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Generously season the beef chuck roast on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place the seasoned roast in the bottom of your slow cooker. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the condensed golden mushroom soup, drained sliced mushrooms, condensed cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, and minced garlic until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Pour the creamy mushroom mixture evenly over the beef roast in the slow cooker, ensuring the roast is well coated. (2 minutes)

04

Step
10 hrs

Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low heat for 8 to 10 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender and easily shreds with a fork. (8-10 hours)

05

Step
10 mins

Once cooked, carefully remove the roast from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker to soak up the delicious gravy. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Serve hot over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, rice, or polenta. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.

For an even richer flavor, consider browning the beef roast in a skillet with a little oil before placing it in the slow cooker. This adds a wonderful depth of flavor.
If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the slow cooker along with the roast, such as carrots, potatoes, or celery. Just be sure to cut them into evenly sized pieces so they cook properly.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.

    This recipe is amazing! The roast was so tender and the gravy was incredibly flavorful. My family loved it!

    The gravy was a little too thick for my liking, but that was easily fixed by adding a bit of beef broth. Overall, a fantastic recipe!

    So easy to prep and the slow cooker does all the work! I did sear the roast first and it made a big difference.
