Heat half the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef with half the salt and pepper. Add the beef to the skillet and sear until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the beef to a 1.5-quart slow cooker.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and the celery. Sauté for 3 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and tomato paste, cooking for 1 minute more. Transfer everything to the slow cooker along with the potatoes and carrots.
Whisk the flour into the beef broth until smooth. Pour the broth, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme over the ingredients in the slow cooker. Stir to combine. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours until the beef is fork-tender. Done when tender enough to shred with a fork, 160°F.
Stir in the red wine vinegar and the remaining salt and pepper. Taste for seasoning. Ladle the stew into a bowl and garnish with fresh parsley.
