Instructions

1 Add onions, carrots and potatoes to the bottom of your slow cooker.
2 Season the beef roast with salt and pepper on all sides. Heat cast iron skillet
to high heat and add oil and butter. Once the skillet is very hot, carefully
sear roast on all sides for about a minute on each side. Transfer to a slow
cooker with drippings.
3 In a small bowl, whisk beef broth, balsamic vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce,
mustard, garlic and brown sugar. Pour over meat and veggies. Sprinkle with dried
parsley.
4 Place lid on slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours.
5 When done, thicken your gravy by adding about a tablespoon of butter in a small
saucepan over medium heat. Sprinkle flour over butter and whisking constantly
add the juices from your slow cooker until sauce lightly thickens.
