– 3 to 4 pounds chuck roast
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper
– 4 cups beef broth or stock
– 1 medium onion, chopped
– 4-5 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
– 4-5 potatoes, peeled and quartered
– 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
– 2 tablespoons tomato paste
– 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
– 1 bay leaf
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating the Perfect Pot Roast is easier than you might think! Follow these steps for a mouthwatering meal:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. Season the Meat: Generously season the chuck roast with salt and pepper on all sides.
3. Brown the Roast: In a large oven-proof pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the roast and set it aside.
4. Sauté Veggies: In the same pot, add onions and cook until softened, around 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
5. Add Tomato Paste: Stir in the tomato paste, cooking for a few minutes to enhance its flavors.
6. Deglaze: Pour in a cup of beef broth to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pot, enhancing flavor.
7. Combine Ingredients: Return the roast to the pot and add the rest of the beef broth, carrots, potatoes, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf.
8. Cover and Cook: Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover the pot, and transfer it to the oven.
9. Slow Cook: Let the pot roast cook for 3-4 hours or until the meat is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
10. Rest the Roast: Once cooked, remove the pot from the oven. Allow the roast to rest in the pot for about 15-20 minutes before slicing.
11. Serve: Slice the roast against the grain and serve with the vegetables and gravy from the pot.

By following these steps, you will create a sensational Perfect Pot Roast that will leave everyone asking for seconds!
