For the Broth:

Instructions:

1. Season & Sear the Wagyu Chuck Roast:

• Pat the roast dry and rub it with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and rosemary.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Sear the roast for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. (This locks in flavor!)

2. Prepare the Crockpot:

3. Slow Cook to Perfection:

• Cover and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours or HIGH for 5-6 hours until the meat is fork-tender.

4. Shred & Serve:

• Remove the roast and shred it with two forks.
• Discard bay leaves. Stir the shredded beef back into the broth and serve over mashed potatoes.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Pro Tips:

• Low & slow is best! Wagyu chuck roast has incredible marbling—cooking it slow melts the fat for unbeatable tenderness.
• Thicken the gravy: For a richer sauce, whisk 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp cold water and stir into the crockpot during the last 30 minutes.
• Leftovers? This roast makes amazing sandwiches, tacos, or pasta toppings!
