Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds beef chuck cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped

Instructions
 

  • Season the beef with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, then transfer it to the slow cooker.
  • In the same skillet, sauté onion, carrots, and celery until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Transfer vegetables to the slow cooker. Add beef broth, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the beef is tender.
