  3. Add the seared roast on top of the vegetables.
  4. In a bowl, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, thyme, and rosemary; pour over the roast.

Notes

To store leftovers, place them in an airtight container. Keep them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze it for longer storage. To reheat, simply microwave or warm on the stove. For extra flavor, let the roast marinate in the seasonings for a few hours before cooking.
