1 pkg (14 g) dried porcini mushrooms
3 lb (1.5 kg) boneless beef cross rib pot roast
4 oz (125 g) thickly sliced bacon, chopped
3 tbsp (45 mL) vegetable oil
1 each onion and large carrot, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper
1-1/2 cups (375 mL) red wine (such as Pinot Noir or Merlot)
1/2 cups (125 mL) beef broth
3 sprigs fresh parsley

1 pkg (10 oz/284 g) pearl onions
1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
3 cups (750 mL) button mushrooms
2 tbsp (25 mL) brandy
2 tbsp (25 mL) minced fresh parsley

1
Soak dried mushrooms in 1/2 cup (125 mL) hot water for 30 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, trim fat from beef; cut meat into 1-1/2-inch (4 cm) cubes and set aside.
3
In Dutch oven, saute bacon over medium-high heat until crisp; transfer to paper towel-lined plate. Drain fat from pan.
4
Add 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil to pan; brown beef, in 3 batches and adding remaining oil as necessary. Transfer to bowl. Drain fat from pan.
5
Add chopped onion, carrot, garlic, salt and pepper to pan; cook over medium heat until softened, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
6
Reserving soaking liquid, remove mushrooms and chop; add to pan along with soaking liquid, wine and broth. Bring to boil, scraping up any brown bits. Tie parsley, thyme and bay leaves together with string. Add to pan along with bacon, beef and any juices. Cover and braise in 325u00b0F (160u00b0C) oven until meat is fork-tender, 2-1/2 to 3 hours.
7
Add mushrooms to skillet; fry until browned, about 5 minutes.
8
With slotted spoon, remove beef to separate bowl. Add pearl onions, mushrooms and brandy to liquid in Dutch oven; bring to boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until thickened and onions are tender, about 25 minutes. Discard herbs. Return beef to pan and heat through. Sprinkle with parsley.

Whisk flour with 1/2 cup (125 mL) water and add to slow cooker; cover and cook on high heat for 15 minutes or until thickened.
