📝 Instructions

14 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

2

Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels and season it generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

3

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

4

Sear the roast in the hot oil for about 4-5 minutes per side, until browned. Remove the roast and set aside.

5

Chop the onion into large chunks. Peel and mince the garlic. Cut the carrots, celery, and potatoes into large pieces.

6

In the same Dutch oven, reduce the heat to medium and add the onion, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened.

7

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

8

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, then pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.

9

Add the beef broth, fresh thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf to the pot. Stir to combine.

10

Return the roast to the Dutch oven and nestle the carrots, celery, and potatoes around the meat.

11

Cover the Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid and transfer it to the preheated oven.

12

Cook for 3.5 to 4 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

13

Remove the pot from the oven and discard the thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf.

14

Serve the pot roast hot with the vegetables and a ladle of the flavorful broth.
