Perfect for pot roast recipes, inexpensive chuck is one of the most flavorful cuts of beef. Simmering it slowly and gently in the oven results in a wonderfully tender pot roast. Vegetables like onions and potatoes give the pot roast recipe even more comforting flavors.

1/2 cup red wine (optional)
3 onions, cut into large wedges

POT ROAST WITH VEGETABLES

This recipe is my personal favorite for pot roast. It tenderizes the toughest meats and produces a wonderful, flavorful gravy. It's best when cooked in a cast-iron Dutch oven. This is a whole meal in one pot, my favorite kind of meal.

Time 6h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (3 1/2) pound boneless beef chuck roast
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped, or to taste
2 ½ cups beef stock
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 bay leaves
¾ pound carrots, cut diagonally into 1-inch-thick slices
1 pound small red potatoes, quartered lengthwise
1 (6 ounce) jar mushrooms, or more to taste
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
1 ½ tablespoons cold water
1 pinch celery salt, or to taste
1 pinch dried basil, or to taste
1 pinch dried thyme, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy pot or cast-iron Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown chuck roast in the hot oil completely, 5 to 8 minutes per side; season with salt and black pepper and transfer to a platter. Reserve oil in pot.
  • Cook and stir onion and garlic in the oil until onions are golden, about 15 minutes. Stir beef stock, tomatoes, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, and bay leaves into onions and garlic; bring to a boil and place chuck roast into the mixture. Cover pot.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until meat is very tender, 4 to 4 1/2 hours. Scatter carrot slices around the beef and bring to a boil over medium heat; return to oven for 30 more minutes. Distribute potatoes around the beef and vegetables, bring to a boil again over medium heat, and bake until potatoes are tender, about 30 more minutes.
  • Transfer beef to a serving platter, cover loosely with a tent of aluminum foil, and set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Stir mushrooms into pan drippings; bring to a simmer over low heat. Whisk cornstarch into cold water in a small bowl and stir into the drippings. Season with celery salt, basil, and thyme. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaves. Slice beef; serve on a platter surrounded by vegetables. Pour gravy over beef.

POT ROAST

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 4-pound brisket point
2 teaspoons celery seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling
4 stalks celery, diced
2 carrots, cleaned and diced
1 large yellow onion, diced
10 to 12 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 bundle fresh thyme
4 tablespoons tomato paste
8 ounces red wine
2 to 4 cups chicken stock, beef stock or water

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the meat liberally with the celery seeds, salt and pepper up to 1 day in advance. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 45 minutes to 1 hour before cooking to take the chill off it. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil, followed by the brisket. Sear the meat until golden brown and crusty, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Set aside.
  • Add the celery, carrots and onions to the Dutch oven, along with a pinch of salt. Brown the vegetables, about 3 minutes, then add the garlic and thyme and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in the tomato paste and toast it until it's rust colored, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add the meat back in, then add enough stock to cover the roast halfway. Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning, adding more salt if necessary. Cover and roast in the oven, basting the meat occasionally, until the roast is tender, 3 to 4 hours.
  • If you're serving individual plates, the meat can be removed to a cutting board and sliced. Or, the meat can be pulled apart with a couple of forks right in the pot at the table and served with plenty of the sauce and vegetables

POT ROAST WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

One 3 to 4-pound beef chuck roast
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 cloves garlic, smashed
1 large onion, sliced
One 15-ounce can whole tomatoes, in juice
1/2 cup red wine
2 cups beef broth, homemade or made from beef bouillon (2 bouillon cubes and 2 cups hot water) not canned
3 sprigs fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 2 tablespoons water, optional
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, optional
2 medium red onions, peeled and quartered, or 6 shallots, peeled and halved
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch coins
1 medium turnip, peeled and cut into 8 wedges or 1 medium celery root, peeled and cut into 8 large chunks or both
About 5 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven, with a lid, over medium-high heat. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper, and sprinkle lightly with the flour. Add the oil to the pot, lay the meat in the pan and sear on both sides until a deep mahogany brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer the meat to a plate. Pour all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the pan.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and cook until fragrant and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up by hand as you add them to the pot, and cook until a deep brick red, about 2 minutes more. Add the wine, and with a wooden spoon scrape up any browned bits that cling to the bottom of the pot. Add the remaining tomato liquid, beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves, and bring to a boil. Return the roast to the pot, nestle it in the liquid, cover and transfer the pot to the oven.
  • Cook until the roast is just tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove the lid and continue to cook, uncovered until tender about 1 hour more.
  • Meanwhile, toss the onions, carrots, parsnips, and turnips with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet in 1 layer. You may have to use 2 baking sheets. Once the roast comes out of the oven, raise the temperature to 450 degrees F. Roast the vegetables, turning about halfway through cooking, until caramelized and tender, about 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Transfer the roast to a plate and cover loosely with foil. Skim the fat off the surface of the liquid and discard. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until thickened. For a thicker sauce whisk in the cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. (Test the thickness of the sauce by spooning some onto a plate and checking the consistency). Stir in the parsley, taste and adjust salt and pepper, as needed. Keep the roast warm in the sauce until ready to slice.
  • Slice the pot roast and lay on a platter; surround with the vegetables. Pour some of the sauce on top and serve the remaining sauce on the side.

Time 3h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (3 pound) beef pot roast
1 onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound carrots, cut into chunks
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef stock
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle dark beer
1 bay leaf
3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Tips:

  • Sear the meat: Searing the meat before braising helps to develop flavor and color. Do this over medium-high heat until the meat is browned on all sides.
  • Use a good quality cut of beef: A chuck roast or brisket are both good choices for pot roast. Look for meat that is well-marbled, as this will help to keep it moist during cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you're using a small pot, cook the meat in batches. Overcrowding the pot will prevent the meat from browning properly.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor and nutrition to pot roast. Common vegetables to add include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: Beef broth, red wine, or even beer can be used to braise the meat. The liquid will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
  • Cook on low heat: Pot roast is a low and slow cooking method. Cook the meat on low heat for at least 8 hours, or until the meat is fall-apart tender.

Conclusion:

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can make a delicious pot roast that will be the star of your next meal. Remember to sear the meat, use a good quality cut of beef, don't overcrowd the pot, add vegetables, use a flavorful liquid, and cook on low heat. With these tips, you're sure to make a pot roast that everyone will love.
