Ingredients
3 lbs beef chuck roast
2 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups beef broth
1 cup red wine
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 lb carrots, cut into chunks
1 lb potatoes, quartered
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
2. Season the beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper.
3. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides, then remove it from the pot.
4. In the same pot, add chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until onions are translucent.
5. Stir in tomato paste, and cook for another minute.
6. Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
7. Return the roast to the pot, add beef broth, carrots, potatoes, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer.
8. Cover the Dutch oven and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for 3-4 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily shredded.
9. Remove from the oven, discard the bay leaves, and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
