Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Meat

Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper on all sides.

2

Sear the Roast

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the roast and sear it for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the roast and set aside.

3

Sauté Vegetables

In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 3 minutes.

4

Add Vegetables and Liquid

Add chopped carrots and potatoes to the pot. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in thyme and rosemary.

5

Combine and Cook

Return the seared roast to the pot, making sure it is submerged in the liquid. Bring to a simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 3-4 hours, or until the meat is tender.

6

Serve

Remove the roast from the pot, slice it, and serve with the vegetables and cooking liquid.
