3 to 4 pounds of chuck roast
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, minced
4 large carrots, sliced into chunks
4 medium potatoes, cut into quarters
1 cup of beef broth
2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Generously season the chuck roast with salt and pepper on all sides.
In a large dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the roast for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned.
Remove the roast and set it aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and garlic, sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
Add the carrots and potatoes, stirring for about 2 minutes so they can soak up the flavors.
Nestle the seared roast back into the pot among the veggies.
Combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme in a bowl, then pour this over the roast and vegetables, covering about half of the roast.
Cover the pot and bake in the preheated oven for 3-4 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
Once done, remove the pot from the oven and let the roast rest for about 15 minutes. Slice and serve with the veggies and broth.
