2 lbs chuck roast or bottom round roast

1 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp freshly grated black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tbsp olive oil

1 cup Guinness Draught Stout

2 cups beef stock

2 tbsp tomato paste

1-2 tbsp Dijon or whole grain mustard

2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

2 medium onions, sliced

4-6 large carrots, cut into 2-inch chunks

3 celery ribs, cut into 2-inch chunks

2 lbs baby potatoes

2 sprigs fresh thyme

1 bay leaf

2 cups frozen peas

½ cup cold water

2 tbsp cornstarch

Gather Ingredients...

Sear...

Preheat a multi cooker with a browning option with a drizzle of olive oil (or if your slow cooker doesn't have a browning function you can sear meat in a skillet instead).

Season 2-3 lbs chuck roast with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

Place roast into hot pan and brown on all sides.

Slow Cook...

Whisk 1 cup Guinness Draught Stout, 2 cups beef stock, 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, 2 tablespoons of either Dijon or whole grain mustard, and 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce together.

Change the function on the multicooker to slow cook on low setting (or in a regular crockpot set to low).

Pour Guinness mixture into the cooker with the roast.

Add 2 medium sliced onions, 4-6 large carrots cut into 2-inch chunks, 3 celery ribs cut into 2-inch chunks, 2 lbs baby potatoes, 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, and 1 bay leaf.

Slow cook for 8 hours until meat is tender.

Thicken Broth...

Remove roast from slow cooker, set aside.

Remove potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions from the slow cooker as well and cover with foil along with the beef.

Discard thyme sprigs and bay leaf.

In a small bowl combine 1/2 cup of cold water and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to make a slurry then add to the Guinness broth.

Stir in 2 cups of frozen peas and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly for 10 Minutes to 15 Minutes or until desired thickness.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve hot, topped with juices and peas.
