PERFECT POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
• If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
• With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
• Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
• Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

Steps:

• Heat up a large skillet on high. Add oil to hot skillet. You want it really hot here to brown or "sear" the beef quickly. This can also be done in your slow cooker if you have the sear or saute option.
• Take a paper towel and make sure you dry both sides of the pot roast. Season with a little bit of salt and pepper. Once the skillet is nice and hot, add the roast. Using tongs, flip the meat over and sear the other side of the roast for another 2-3 minutes.
• Transfer meat to slow cooker. Sprinkle packets of dry ranch dressing and onion soup mixes over pot roast. Top with a stick of butter then place peppers on and around roast.
• Cover and cook on low for 8 hours. DO NOT open the lid. It's tempting but leave it alone!
• After it has cooked, take two forks and start shredding the meat. Discard any big fatty pieces. Then serve.

• In large frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat until very hot. Place roast into pan of hot oil and turn down heat a little. Sear until nicely browned, turn and sear other side. (About 4 minutes per side depending on how hot you have your pan.) Turn off heat leaving roast in frying pan.
• While roast is searing, pour beef broth into large roaster. Stir in red wine and garlic.
• Spread top and sides of roast with half of horseradish and half of spicy brown mustard, place coated side-down into roaster. Spread top with the rest of horseradish and mustard.
• Top with onions and dot with butter.
• Cover with tight-fitting lid, and pop into preheated 325 degree oven. Roast for 2 1/2 hours, turning once after the first hour, and then two more times during the remainder of time replacing the onions on top each time to keep it extra moist.
• Add celery, potatoes and carrots submerging into broth around roast, recover, and continue roasting until veggies are tender, about 1 more hour. (If veggies aren't covered in the broth, just baste well several times during roasting.)
• Remove roast to a platter. With a slotted spoon, remove veggies and place around roast. *Leave a few onions, a couple of celery pieces and 2-3 carrots in roaster. Cover roast and veggies to keep warm.
• With a hand emulsifier, blend veggies into broth. (*This makes for a richer gravy and takes any tartness out of the gravy as well.)
• Heat the broth/stock on the stovetop over medium heat until just boiling. Stir cornstarch and cold water together and slowly whisk in. Lower heat, stir in heavy cream if desired, simmer and whisk for 2-3 minutes until thickened and cooked down just a bit. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
• Ladle a little gravy over roast and veggies and place the rest of gravy into a gravy boat to serve alongside.
• Serve this with bread and butter for mopping! ;)
