Best Ever Roast Beef

• 1 boneless beef chuck roast (4 pounds), trimmed
• 1 large sweet onion, chopped
• 1-1/3 cups plus 3 tablespoons water, divided
• 1 can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed French onion soup
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 6 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch

1. Cut roast in half. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker; add onion and 1-1/3 cups water. In a small bowl, combine the soup, brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger and pepper; pour over top. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or until meat is tender.
2. Remove meat to a serving platter and keep warm. Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer to a small saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil. Combine cornstarch and remaining water until smooth; gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with roast.
