Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds Chuck Roast
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 carrots, cut into chunks
- 4 potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1 onion, quartered
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine (optional)
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Season the chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the roast on all sides until browned. This step locks in those wonderful flavors.
- Once the roast is browned, transfer it to a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot. Add the carrots, potatoes, onion, and garlic around the meat.
- Pour the beef broth and red wine (if using) over the roast and vegetables. Sprinkle the thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf on top.
- Cover tightly with a lid and place in the preheated oven. Cook for about 3-4 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for about 15 minutes before slicing.
- Serve your perfect pot roast with the delicious vegetables and spoon some of that rich gravy over the top. Enjoy!
