The real secret here is making sure you sear the meat before the long, slow braising. Serve with mashed potatoes.

Time 6h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (5 pound) bone-in beef pot roast
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 ½ cups chicken broth
3 medium carrots, cut into chunks
2 stalks celery, cut into chunks
1 sprig fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Generously season both sides of roast with salt and pepper. Sprinkle flour over the top until well coated, and pat it into the meat. Shake off any excess.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear the roast on both sides for 5-6 minutes each, until well browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and stir in mushrooms and butter; cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in onion; cook for 5 minutes, until onions are translucent and begin to brown. Add garlic, stir for about a minute.
  • Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons flour; cook and stir for about 1 minute. Add tomato paste, and cook for another minute.
  • Slowly add chicken stock, stir to combine, and return to a simmer. Remove skillet from the heat.
  • Place carrots and celery in the slow cooker. Place roast over the vegetables and pour in any accumulated juices. Add rosemary and thyme.
  • Pour onion and mushroom mixture over the top of the roast. Cover slow cooker, turn to high and cook the roast for 5-6 hours, until the meat is fork tender.
  • Skim off any fat from the surface and remove the bones. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
