CHUCK WAGON ROAST WITH VEGETABLES

I got this recipe out of the 1989 All American Brand Name Cook Book, my mother in law gave to me as a Christmas gift the year before I married her son. This is an amazing roast. It tastes delicious! I did change the cooking instructions over the years as my way makes for a much more tender roast. This recipe also works nicely...

Time 4h35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3 pound boneless chuck roast
2 Tbsp oil
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 c water
1 c buttermilk
4 tsp instant beef soup boullion (or use 1 cup good beef stock instead of water and bouillon)
1/2 tsp crushed thyme leaves
1/4 tsp pepper
4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium onions, cut into wedges
3 c frozen broccoli flourets, thawed (i use 1 crown of fresh broccoli)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • 2. In a large skillet, brown roast in oil. Place in 3-quart roasting or baking pan. (I use a baking pan and wrap roast tight in foil) Add flour to drippings; cook and stir until browned. Add buttermilk, water, bouillon, thyme and pepper. Cook and stir until bouillon dissolves and mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • 3. Place onions around meat; spoon sauce over meat. Cover; bake 2 hours.

CHUCK WAGON BEEF ROAST

Provided by Elle Grimm

Categories     Roasts

Number Of Ingredients 8

2.5 lb eye of round roast
3/4 c ketchup
3/4 c apple juice
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/3 tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp soy sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Spray a dutch oven with non stick cooking spray.
  • 2. Heat over medium high heat until hot. Add roast.
  • 3. Cook 4-6 minutes, turning to brown evenly.
  • 4. Combine ketchup and remaining ingredients.
  • 5. Pour over roast and cover tightly.
  • 6. Bake at 325 for 2 1/2 hours or until roast is tender.
  • 7. To serve, slice roast thinly.
  • 8. Arrange on serving platter.
  • 9. Spoon sauce over slices.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chuck roast: Look for a chuck roast that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep the meat moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Brown the roast before braising: Browning the roast before braising helps to develop flavor and color. You can do this in a skillet over medium-high heat, or in a Dutch oven or slow cooker on the sauté setting.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will give the roast its flavor, so make sure to use a flavorful combination of ingredients. Some good options include beef broth, red wine, beer, and vegetables.
  • Cook the roast on low heat for a long time: Chuck roast is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked on low heat for a long time in order to become tender. The best way to do this is to braise the roast in a Dutch oven or slow cooker. If you're using a slow cooker, cook the roast on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.
  • Let the roast rest before serving: Once the roast is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Chuck wagon roast is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a family meal or a potluck. The roast is cooked in a flavorful braising liquid until it is fall-apart tender. Serve it with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
