Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt a tablespoon of butter. Lightly sear the beef chuck roast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms, enhancing the flavor of your Slow Cooker Garlic Butter Beef with Potatoes.
  2. Place the seared beef chuck roast in your slow cooker. Pour in a cup of beef broth and add minced garlic and the remaining butter. Stir gently to distribute the garlic evenly.
  3. Cut the Yukon Gold potatoes in half and carefully place them around the beef in the slow cooker. Ensure the potatoes are submerged in the flavorful liquid.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and set it to low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. The beef should be fork-tender.
  5. Once cooked, remove the lid and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the Slow Cooker Garlic Butter Beef with Potatoes. Serve with a generous spoonful of the luscious garlic butter sauce drizzled over the beef and potatoes.
