1 1-1/2 pound chuck roast
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 medium carrots, cleaned and sliced

Small amount of oil

Cube roast into bite size pieces. Place flour in zipper plastic bag. Add beef. Shake to coat. Brown in oil. Drain. Place beef in crock pot. Add vegetables, boullion, water (and broth, if desired). Place bay leaves on top.
Allow to cook on high for approximately 6 hours. Prior to serving, mix flour (or cornstarch) and water for thickener. Add to stew until desired thickness is reached.
