Ingredients

• 3 pounds beef chuck roast
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 yellow onion, sliced
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
• 4 russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
• 2 cups beef broth
• 0.5 cups red wine (optional)
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 2 bay leaves

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef chuck roast generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and sear the roast for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the roast and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

Step 4

Transfer the seared roast and the onion-garlic mixture to a slow cooker or a large roasting pan (if using an oven).

Step 5

Add the carrots, potatoes, beef broth, and red wine (if using) to the slow cooker or roasting pan. Sprinkle the dried thyme and rosemary over the top and tuck the bay leaves into the liquid.

Step 6

If using a slow cooker, set it to low and cook for 8-10 hours until the roast is fork-tender. If using an oven, cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and cook at 275°F (135°C) for 6-8 hours.

Step 7

Once cooked, carefully remove the roast and vegetables from the cooker or pan. Skim off any excess fat from the liquid and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 8

Slice or shred the roast and serve hot with the tender vegetables and a ladle of the flavorful sauce. Enjoy!
