Instructions

Begin by chopping the carrots and onions into bite-sized pieces.
Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
(Optional) Sear the roast in a skillet until browned all over for added flavor.
Layer the chopped carrots and quartered onions in the bottom of the crockpot.
Place the seasoned roast atop the vegetables, ensuring an even distribution.
Pour the low-sodium beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the roast and vegetables.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4 hours, until the meat is tender and easy to shred.
To thicken the gravy, mix cornstarch with water, then stir into the remaining liquid and heat until thickened.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like thyme or rosemary. Rest the meat for 15 minutes before slicing.
