Instructions

Soften (half melt) the butter and combine all of the dry ingredients apart from the chuck and bone broth and mix into a paste

Brown the chuck in a frying pan over high heat. We’re not cooking the chuck through just searing the outside. I like to sear it until the beef is dark brown. A very hot pan should do this quickly.
Once seared, transfer the chuck to the slow cooker along with all the burnt bits and melted butter in the pan (I like the flavor it gives), and cover with the bone broth.

You can cook it on high for 8 hours or until it just falls apart; the sinue should be like jelly. However, I like to cook mine on low heat for at least 12 hours up to 18 hours.
Once cooked, remove the meat from the slow cooker and pull it apart, serve or portion it out in containers, spoon the liquid over each portion evenly, and freeze.
