Steps:
- Bring the beef to room temperature before you handle it.
- Mix flour, salt and pepper and coat the beef all over.
- Preheat the oven to 275-300 F (depending on your oven's calibration).
- Heat a Dutch oven or similar heavy duty oven safe pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and sear beef on all sides until nicely browned. Remove temporarily and lower the heat to medium.
- Saute the onions briefly, add the tomato paste and minced garlic and give everything a nice stir, cook about 1 minute. Deglaze with some porter and scrape brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the rest of the porter, then the beef broth, brown sugar and thyme. Stir.
- Add back the beef and surround with the potatoes and carrots. Bring to boil. Cover and transfer to the oven.
- Check after 2 hours to make sure that there is sufficient liquid remaining. If needed add a bit more ale or stock or water. Continue braising until the beef is very tender** and can easily be broken up with a fork.
- Reserve the juices to use in gravy (optional) and break up the roast before serving.

BEER-BRAISED BEEF AND ONIONS
This hearty, warming beef and onion stew is flavored with Belgian beer, bay leaves and sweet paprika. A variation on a traditional Flemish carbonnade, it's rich and homey but still lively, with a ruddy color from the paprika. The very large quantity of onions adds sweetness, and also helps make the sauce velvety soft. Serve it over potatoes, noodles or polenta.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine salt, pepper, bay leaves and paprika. Toss meat to coat, then cover, refrigerate and marinate at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a large (8-quart) Dutch oven or other heavy pot, heat butter and oil over medium-high until shimmering. Working in batches, brown beef on two sides until dark and crusty, transferring to a bowl when browned (reserve bay leaves). As you cook, add more oil and adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning.
- When all the meat is browned, add onions to the empty pot and return the heat to medium-high if you lowered it. Cook, stirring and scraping up the brown coating on the bottom of the pan as the onions release their liquid.
- Continue cooking until onions are deeply golden brown and soft, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, make a bouquet garni by tying thyme, parsley and reserved bay leaves together with kitchen string (or just throw them in the pot and warn your guests not to eat them).
- Push the onions to the sides, then add tomato paste, coriander and cinnamon to the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring, 1 minute, until paste is darkened and fragrant. Stir in flour, cook another minute, then add stock, beer, 1 cup water and bouquet garni. Return beef and any juices in the bowl to the pot, bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven. Cook until beef is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours, turning it over halfway through.
- If the sauce seems thin, remove the meat with a slotted spoon; cover with foil to keep warm. Return pot with liquid to stove and simmer until thickened to taste, 5 to 10 minutes. Return the meat to pot and stir to heat through. Serve from the pot or a platter. Garnish with chopped parsley, flaky sea salt, pepper and paprika. Serve with mustard on the side.

BEER-BRAISED BEEF AND ONIONS
This is a simple and flavourful recipe from this month's "Gourmet Magazine" (Feb. 2009). "Long, slow cooking turns a supermarket chuck roast into something gloriously tender, flavorful, and aromatic. Leftovers are delicious shredded, heated in the sauce, and served over egg noodles." It's also great sided with mashed potatoes. Cooks' note: Beef improves in flavor if made at least 1 day ahead (up to 4 days) and chilled in sauce (covered once cool). Discard solidified fat. To reheat, remove meat from sauce and slice, then spoon gelled sauce over meat in a shallow baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and heat in a 325°F oven, about 45 minutes. Alternatively, you can reheat meat, unsliced, in sauce.

BEER BRAISED ONIONS
These onions are great with burgers (try it with my recipe #309195).They can be cooked ahead, cooled and kept in the fridge. When you need them, simmer them gently. When they are hot, add a splash of beer to perk up the flavour.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a pan. Add the onions and cook until tender.
- Add 6 fl oz beer, sugar and salt. Cook approx 16/18 minutes until the beer is absorbed and the onions are starting to brown.
- Add the remaining beer and simmer gently.
- Serve warm to accompany burgers.
Tips:
- Selecting the Right Chuck Roast: Opt for a well-marbled chuck roast with good fat distribution to ensure tender and flavorful results.
- Searing the Roast: Before braising, sear the chuck roast over high heat to develop a rich brown crust. This step adds depth of flavor to the final dish.
- Choosing the Beer: Select a beer that complements the flavors of the dish. Dark beers, such as stout or porter, impart a rich and robust taste, while lighter beers, like pilsner or ale, provide a more subtle flavor.
- Adding Aromatics: Enhance the flavor of the braising liquid by adding aromatic vegetables like onions, carrots, and celery. These vegetables will infuse the liquid with their natural sweetness.
- Using a Dutch Oven or Slow Cooker: Both a Dutch oven and a slow cooker can be used for braising. A Dutch oven provides more control over the cooking process, while a slow cooker offers a hands-off approach.
- Cooking Time: The cooking time for braised chuck roast can vary depending on the method used. In a Dutch oven, cook the roast for 2-3 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). In a slow cooker, cook the roast on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours.
Conclusion:
Beer-braised chuck roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and packed with flavor. By following these tips, you can create a tender, juicy, and flavorful roast that will satisfy the whole family. Experiment with different types of beer and aromatics to create your own unique variations of this beloved dish. Enjoy!
