Sunday Pot Roast
This pot roast is the ultimate comfort food, fellas. With tender meat, succulent veggies, and rich gravy, it's a dish that'll have everyone coming back for seconds.
Ingredients
Before we dive into the cooking, let’s get our ingredients straight. You’ll need:
- 3 to 4 pounds of beef chuck roast
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 to 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 carrots, chopped
- 3 stalks celery, chopped
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Alright, let’s get this pot roast party started:
- First, season your chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. This is where the flavor starts, so don’t be shy!
- In a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Get it hot, then add the roast, searing it on all sides until it's golden brown. Take your time with this step, honey—it’s all about building that flavor!
- Once browned, remove the roast and set it aside. In the same pot, toss in the onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté them until they start to soften, around 5 minutes.
- Now, it’s time to welcome back our roast. Return the beef to the pot, then pour in the beef broth, thyme, bay leaves, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir it all up, ensuring the meat is situated nicely in the liquid.
- Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover it up tightly, and let it simmer. If you've got the time, let it cook on low for about 3 to 4 hours until that meat is tender and falling apart.
- When it’s done, remove the roast, slice it up, and serve with those luscious veggies and rich gravy ladled over the top. Enjoy every bite!
And there you have it, folks! A delicious, heartwarming Sunday Pot Roast that’ll have everyone feeling loved and satisfied. Don’t forget to pair it with your favorite side dishes and some good conversation. Happy cooking!
