BALSAMIC BRAISED POT ROAST RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Balsamic Braised Pot Roast Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Jomamma

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 boneless beef chuck roast (3-4 lbs)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 celery ribs with leaves, cut into 2-in pieces
2 med carrots, cut into 1-in pieces
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
3 medium turnips, peeled and quartered (I cut them in large chunks instead of quartered)
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup dry red wine or beef broth (I used broth)
1 can (14 1/2 oz) beef broth
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 bunch fresh thyme sprigs (I used a palm full of dried)
4 fresh sage leaves (I used a palm full of dried)
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 325 Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper. In an ovenproof dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Brown roast on all sides. Remove from pan. Add the celery, carrots and onion to the same pan; cook and stir until tender. Add the turnips, sweet potato and garlic; cook one minute longer. Add the wine (or broth), stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Stir in the broth, vinegar and herbs. Return roast to pan; bring to a boil. Cover and bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is tender. Remove beef and vegetables; keep warm. Discard the bay leaves from cooking liquid; skim fat. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into cooking liquid. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with pot roast and vegetables. Best pot roast EVER!

Tips:

  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar for the best flavor. A cheap vinegar will not have the same depth of flavor and will not braise the pot roast as well.
  • Brown the pot roast in a large Dutch oven or braising pan over medium-high heat before braising. This will help to develop a rich, flavorful crust on the meat.
  • Add plenty of vegetables to the braising liquid. This will help to add flavor and nutrition to the pot roast.
  • Simmer the pot roast for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender. The longer you simmer the pot roast, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

Balsamic braised pot roast is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. The balsamic vinegar gives the pot roast a rich, flavorful crust, and the vegetables add a pop of color and nutrition. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
