Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef chuck roast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 medium Carrots, sliced
- 2 Celery stalks, diced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 cups Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 Bay leaf
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
Season the beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, then sear it in the pot for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the beef and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium, and in the same pot, sauté the diced onion, carrots, and celery for 5-6 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the browned beef to the pot, then pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
Stir in the chopped rosemary, thyme, and the bay leaf. Cover the pot with a lid and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for 3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
While the beef is cooking, prepare the herb biscuits. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk, parsley, and chives until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
When the beef is done, remove it from the oven and discard the bay leaf. Spoon some of the cooking liquid over the meat to keep it moist.
Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
Drop biscuit dough by spoonfuls onto the beef in evenly spaced portions. Return the pot to the oven and bake uncovered for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm, spooning tender beef, vegetables, and biscuits onto individual plates.
