Cooking Instructions

Season the beef chuck roast liberally with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Let it rest while preparing the slow cooker.
Layer the sliced onion evenly at the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the seasoned beef roast on top.
In a mixing bowl, combine beef broth, brown gravy mix, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk until fully incorporated and pour over the beef.
Cover and set the slow cooker to cook on low for 8 hours.
After cooking, remove the beef and shred it with two forks. If the gravy is too thin, whisk in a cornstarch slurry and return the beef.
Serve the shredded beef over creamy mashed potatoes and ladle gravy on top.
