Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs beef roast (chuck or round)
- 4 carrots, chopped
- 4 potatoes, diced
- 1 onion, quartered
- 4 cups beef broth (low sodium)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Sear the Beef:
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Season the roast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Brown the roast on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes per side, to lock in the juices and enhance flavor.
- Add the Veggies:
- Place the chopped carrots, diced potatoes, and quartered onion around the seared roast in the pot. This will allow the vegetables to absorb the rich flavors of the meat and spices.
- Pour the Broth:
- Add the beef broth and thyme to the pot, ensuring the roast is partially submerged. This will create a savory broth that enhances the dish’s overall flavor.
- Cook the Roast:
- Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low.
- Simmer for 3-4 hours or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. The slow cooking process ensures that the beef becomes melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
- Serve Your Dish:
- Once cooked, remove the roast from the pot, slice it, and serve it alongside the vegetables and broth. This combination makes for a hearty and satisfying meal.
