3 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into 3-inch pieces
1 packet (1 ounce) ranch dressing mix

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the beef pieces with salt and black pepper.
Sear the beef pieces in the hot oil until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared beef pieces to the crock pot.
Add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the crock pot, spreading them evenly over the beef.
Sprinkle the ranch dressing mix over the beef and onions.
Pour the beef broth into the crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
