Ingredients

• 4 pounds Beef roast (chuck or rib roast)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 4 large Carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 4 medium Potatoes, quartered
• 2 large Onions, quartered

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

Prepare the beef by patting it dry with paper towels. This will help to achieve a good sear.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary, and dried thyme.

Step 4

Rub the olive oil over the entire beef roast, then season it generously with the spice mixture, ensuring all sides are evenly coated.

Step 5

In a large, oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat a little more olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Once hot, add the beef roast and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 7

Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 8

Pour the beef broth into the skillet and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon.

Step 9

Return the beef to the skillet and add the carrots, potatoes, and onions around it.

Step 10

Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.

Step 11

Bake for about 3 hours or until the beef is tender and a fork easily pierces through the meat.

Step 12

Check the beef halfway through cooking; if the liquid level is too low, add a bit more beef broth or water.

Step 13

Once done, remove from the oven and let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Step 14

Serve the sliced beef roast with the cooked vegetables and enjoy!
