For an even richer gravy, consider browning the chuck roast in a skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. This adds an extra layer of caramelized flavor. If you prefer a thicker gravy, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Feel free to experiment with different types of dry sherry, such as amontillado or oloroso, to find your preferred flavor profile. To elevate the presentation, garnish the finished dish with fresh parsley or thyme before serving.
