- 1 (3–5 lb) chuck roast (or your preferred cut)
2 (8 oz) cans tomato sauce
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon horseradish sauce

Place the chuck roast in the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, whisk together tomato sauce, liquid smoke, garlic, Worcestershire, onion, sugar, horseradish sauce, pepper, salt, thyme, oregano, and parsley until well combined.
Pour the tomato gravy over the roast. Cover and cook:
