Perfect Pot Roast [0001084]

Ingredients:

1 (3 to 4-pound) chuck roast
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, chopped
6 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
2 sprigs fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
2 cups gluten-free beef broth

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).

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

In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Add the seasoned chuck roast to the pot and sear it on all sides until it's nicely browned. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side.

Remove the seared roast from the pot and set it aside.

In the same pot, add the chopped onions, carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.

Return the seared roast to the pot and place the fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs on top. If using dried herbs, sprinkle them over the roast.

Pour the gluten-free beef broth into the pot, making sure it reaches about halfway up the sides of the roast.

Cover the pot with a lid and transfer it to the preheated oven.

Let the pot roast cook in the oven for 3 to 3.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.

Once done, remove the pot from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing or shredding the roast.

Serve your Gluten-Free Perfect Pot Roast with the flavorful vegetables and enjoy a comforting and hearty meal!
