You can do this in either a conventional or a convection oven. If you use a conventional oven, I would rotate the roasting pan half way through the cooking process to compensate for any hot spots in the oven. If you use a convection oven (with the fan), cooking is more even because the fan blows the hot air around the food, but you have to remember to reduce cooking temperatures 50 degrees if you leave the convection function on.

How long does one cook a 5 pound chuck roast in a crock pot with carrots and celery?

First, brown the roast on all sides in a skillet set on medium heat with just enough oil to cover the bottom... 2 to 3 minutes per side should do... Place roast, veggies, and seasonings in crock pot... Layer veggies first (potatoes, carrots, then celery), set the roast on top. Add just enough liquid to cover the roast, set to high, then cook 9-10 hours... Best to let it cook overnight, then set to low to keep until lunch, or start in early morning for dinner.

Place in a small baking pan, add water to cover the bottom of the pan. Slow cook it at 250-270 degrees for several hours covered. Once the meat has reached 135-155 internal temp or until desired coloring. I would recommend doing a simple dry rub on the roast before cooking. Even add some veggies like carrots, potatoes or onions. They will release juices as they cook as well as add a great flavor to the end product.
