Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Season the roast with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast and sear on all sides until well browned, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
- Add the celery, carrots and onions and saute until caramelized on the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the flour, garlic, thyme, bay leaves and rosemary. Stir to incorporate the flour into the oil and cook until the flour smells toasty, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Add the roast back to the pot, along with the stock and potatoes. Bring to a rapid simmer and cover tightly. Place in the oven and cook, covered, until the meat is just tender (a knife will slide out easily with no resistance), about 2 hours 30 minutes. Remove the meat to a cutting board.
- Let the sauce sit for a few minutes, and then spoon off any fat that has risen to the surface (or pour into a fat-separating measuring cup, pour off the fat and add the sauce back to the pot). Return the sauce to a simmer. Whisk in the mustard and horseradish and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Discard the bay leaves and stir in the parsley if using.
- Carve the meat into 1/2-inch-thick slices against the grain, and serve with the sauce and vegetables.

DUTCH OVEN NEW ENGLAND POT ROAST
My grandmother used to make this Pot Roast all the time. The key is using a little better cut of meat then "Chuck", and cooking slowly. I have embelished the recipe slightly, using wine and more herbs. My grandmother was a tea-totaler! By cooking at a lower oven setting, the meat will just fall apart! I use a top of the round roast, but you can also use a bottom of the round.

NEW ENGLAND POT ROAST
This recipe is a family favorite which is cooked on the stove top using a large pot with a tight seal or a cast iron dutch oven. (Yes, there are good uses for the cast iron!) The horseradish results in a flavor that turns out quite mild and delicious and the beef is fall-apart tender. Your mouth will be watering for hours as you smell this dish cooking and cooking. You have to get an early start on this one if you plan to have it for the night's supper because the cooking time is a bit lengthy....a great Saturday project!

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, and brisket are all good choices for pot roast. Look for a piece of meat that has good marbling, as this will help it stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
- Brown the meat before braising: Browning the meat in a Dutch oven or skillet over medium-high heat will help to develop flavor and create a nice crust. Once the meat is browned, remove it from the pot and set it aside.
- Add vegetables and aromatics: To the Dutch oven, add vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, and garlic. You can also add herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, and black pepper. Sauté the vegetables and aromatics until they are softened.
- Add the browned meat and liquid: Return the browned meat to the Dutch oven and add enough liquid to cover it. You can use beef broth, water, or a combination of both. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is tender.
- Thicken the sauce: Once the meat is cooked, you can thicken the sauce by adding a cornstarch slurry or a roux. A cornstarch slurry is made by mixing equal parts cornstarch and water. A roux is made by cooking equal parts butter and flour together until it forms a paste.
- Serve the pot roast with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and steamed rice are all good choices. You can also serve the pot roast on a bed of egg noodles or mashed cauliflower.
