Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roast

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper. Once the oil is hot, sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    Remove the roast from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the carrots, potatoes, beef broth, tomato paste, bay leaves, and the seared roast back into the skillet. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 3-4 hours or until the beef is fork-tender.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the bay leaves and discard. Shred the beef with two forks and stir it back into the pot. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
