     Title: Pioneer Woman's Pot Roast
Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs
     Yield: 6 servings

     5 lb Chuck roast
          Salt & fresh ground pepper
     2 tb (to 3 tb) olive oil
     2 lg Onions; peeled and halved
     8    Carrots; unpeeled, in 2"
          - pieces
     1 c  Red wine; opt
     3 c  Beef broth
     3    Sprigs fresh rosemary
     3    Sprigs fresh thyme

 Set the oven @ 275ºF/135ºC.

 In a large pot or Dutch oven, over medium-high heat, add
 the olive oil. When it shimmers, add the onion halves
 and cook until browned on all sides. Remove to a plate.

 Next, toss in the carrots and saute until fragrant and
 lightly charred. Remove the carrots and add them to the
 plate with the reserved onions.

 Generously season the chuck roast on all sides with salt
 and pepper.

 Add a bit more olive oil to the pot, if needed, then add
 the meat to the pot. Sear it on all sides until it is
 nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.

 EDITOR’S TIP: When searing the beef (or searing any
 steak), make sure the pot is still screaming hot to get
 a nice crust on the meat. Resist the urge to move the
 meat more than necessary in the pot, and flip it only
 once.

 With the burner still on high, deglaze the pot with 1
 cup of red wine or beef broth. Use a wooden spoon or
 whisk to scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen all of
 the bits (a.k.a. the fond) stuck to the surface.

 Return the roast back into the pot with the onions,
 carrots and fresh herbs. Add enough beef stock to cover
 the meat halfway, about 2-3 cups, then cover with a
 tight-fitting lid.

 Transfer the roast to the preheated oven and roast for 3
 to 4 hours. The roast is ready when it’s fall-apart
 tender. Serve with mashed potatoes and other homestyle
 side dishes of your choice. Enjoy!
