Categories     main-dish

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 3- to 5-pound chuck roast
2 or 3 tablespoons olive oil
2 whole onions, peeled and halved
6 to 8 whole carrots, unpeeled, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup red wine, optional
3 cups beef broth
2 or 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 or 3 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
  • Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
  • Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
  • If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
  • With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
  • Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
  • Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

Tips for Cooking Pot Roast in Beer:

- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, or brisket are great choices for pot roast. These cuts have plenty of marbling, which will help keep the meat moist and tender during cooking. - Use a good quality beer: The beer you use will impart flavor to the pot roast, so choose one that you enjoy drinking. Dark beers like stout or porter will give the pot roast a rich, malty flavor, while lighter beers like pilsner or lager will give it a more delicate flavor. - Brown the meat before braising: Browning the meat before braising it will help develop flavor and color. Be sure to brown the meat in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan and steam instead of brown. - Add vegetables and herbs to the pot: Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions will add flavor and nutrition to the pot roast. Herbs like thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves will also add flavor. - Braise the pot roast for at least 3 hours: Braising is a low and slow cooking method that helps to tenderize the meat. Braise the pot roast for at least 3 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender. - Serve the pot roast with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or roasted vegetables are all great choices for serving with pot roast.

Conclusion:

Pot roast cooked in beer is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can make a pot roast that is fall-apart tender and bursting with flavor. So next time you're looking for a hearty and delicious meal, give pot roast cooked in beer a try.
