Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the chuck roast and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Combine flour, seasoned salt, and pepper in a large plastic bag. Add beef and shake to coat well.
Heat oil in a frying pan. Add beef and cook until browned on all sides. Remove beef from the pan and place in the crock pot.
Add onion to the frying pan, adding a little more oil if needed. Cook for 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add tomato paste and enough beef broth to de-glaze the pan, using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits off the bottom.
Pour contents of pan into crock pot along with the rest of the can of beef broth and all remaining ingredients except the peas. Cover crock pot and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours. Add peas about 30 minutes before end of cooking.
