Season 3–4 pounds beef chuck roast with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 3–4 minutes per side. Transfer to the slow cooker.
Pour 2 cans (10.5 ounces each) condensed French onion soup and 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce on top of the roast.
Top with 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced, 4 cloves garlic, minced, and 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
Cover and cook on low for 8–10 hours, until the meat is tender and easily shreds.
Shred the meat in the slow cooker and mix with the onion gravy.
Serve and enjoy!
