Most important is buy premium chuck roast. First brown the roast on all sides using a little olive or vegetable oil. Put in crock pot add beef broth and cut up onion. Cook on low about 5-6 hours. Add carrots about 1 hour before serving. (I use the little fresh carrots) Depending on how big you cut the peeled potatoes will determine how long to cook them. My family likes mashed potatoes so I do not add them to crock pot.

You can then make gravy from the broth.
