Ingredients
2 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
1 large onion, chopped

Instructions
In a large bowl, toss the beef cubes with the all-purpose flour until evenly coated.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes in batches and brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Transfer browned beef to the slow cooker.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Transfer to the slow cooker.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Pour the mixture over the beef and potatoes in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
Stir gently before serving and adjust seasoning if needed.
