Pot Roast

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.

Step 2

Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.

Step 4

Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.

Step 5

If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.

Step 6

With the burner still on high, red wine (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.

Step 7

Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.

Step 8

Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

Step 9

Add the potatoes when the roast is about 1/2-3/4 done. For 3lb roast add them in at 1.5 hours and for 5 lb add them in at 2.5 hours.
