Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large Dutch oven, with a lid, over medium-high heat. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper, and sprinkle lightly with the flour. Add the oil to the pot, lay the meat in the pan and sear on both sides until a deep mahogany brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer the meat to a plate. Pour all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the pan.
• Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and cook until fragrant and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up by hand as you add them to the pot, and cook until a deep brick red, about 2 minutes more. Add the wine, and with a wooden spoon scrape up any browned bits that cling to the bottom of the pot. Add the remaining tomato liquid, beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves, and bring to a boil. Return the roast to the pot, nestle it in the liquid, cover and transfer the pot to the oven.
• Cook until the roast is just tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove the lid and continue to cook, uncovered until tender about 1 hour more.
• Meanwhile, toss the onions, carrots, parsnips, and turnips with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet in 1 layer. You may have to use 2 baking sheets. Once the roast comes out of the oven, raise the temperature to 450 degrees F. Roast the vegetables, turning about halfway through cooking, until caramelized and tender, about 30 to 45 minutes.
• Transfer the roast to a plate and cover loosely with foil. Skim the fat off the surface of the liquid and discard. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until thickened. For a thicker sauce whisk in the cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. (Test the thickness of the sauce by spooning some onto a plate and checking the consistency). Stir in the parsley, taste and adjust salt and pepper, as needed. Keep the roast warm in the sauce until ready to slice.
• Slice the pot roast and lay on a platter; surround with the vegetables. Pour some of the sauce on top and serve the remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 4-quart ovenproof Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle beef with salt and pepper. Add to Dutch oven; cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove beef from Dutch oven; set aside.
• Cook onions in drippings 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Place beef on onions. In medium bowl, stir together broth, wine, tomato paste, garlic and thyme with whisk. Pour over beef and onions. Heat to simmering.

• Cook and stir onion and garlic in the oil until onions are golden, about 15 minutes. Stir beef stock, tomatoes, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, and bay leaves into onions and garlic; bring to a boil and place chuck roast into the mixture. Cover pot.
• Cook in the preheated oven until meat is very tender, 4 to 4 1/2 hours. Scatter carrot slices around the beef and bring to a boil over medium heat; return to oven for 30 more minutes. Distribute potatoes around the beef and vegetables, bring to a boil again over medium heat, and bake until potatoes are tender, about 30 more minutes.
• Transfer beef to a serving platter, cover loosely with a tent of aluminum foil, and set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
• Stir mushrooms into pan drippings; bring to a simmer over low heat. Whisk cornstarch into cold water in a small bowl and stir into the drippings. Season with celery salt, basil, and thyme. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaves. Slice beef; serve on a platter surrounded by vegetables. Pour gravy over beef.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°.
• Place roast with all the vegetables in an ungreased 9x13-inch or larger baking pan.

• Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Toss the carrots, potatoes, onions and garlic with some oil, salt and pepper and add them to the pan. Continue to roast for 30 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock to the pan and continue to roast to the desired tenderness and temperature, 165 to 190 degrees F for brisket. (See Cook's Note.) If you do racks or a leg of lamb, 135 degrees F and up is desired. For a pork rack or loin, cook to 145 degrees F and up. Remove the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
• While the meat is resting, stir the butter into the liquid in the pan with a splash of vinegar. Slice the meat and serve over the vegetables. Top with the sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Generously season the roast on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until sizzling hot (see Know-how, page 100). Add the roast and sear to a rich brown color, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place the onion and carrots around the roast in the skillet and cook and stir while the roast is searing.
• Add the wine, thyme, and rosemary and cook and stir for about 1 minute, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add enough broth to cover three-quarters of the roast. Reduce the heat to medium and bring the liquid to a low boil.
• Cover the pot tightly with a lid or aluminum foil and roast in the oven, undisturbed, for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, until the meat is fork-tender (see Know-how, page 172).
• Remove the roast from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon the Herb-Roasted Vegetables and onions around the meat and cover loosely to keep warm. Remove the herb stems and carrots from the skillet. Use a large spoon to skim the fat off the top of the cooking liquid. Place the skillet over high heat and reduce the liquid by half. Pour over the roast and serve warm with the roasted vegetables scattered around the platter.

Roast for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring several times while cooking, until soft when pierced with the tip of a small knife and light brown around the edges.
• While the potatoes and squash are roasting, place the onion, carrots, and parsnips on a separate rimmed baking sheet with the remaining 2 tablespoons rosemary, 2 tablespoons thyme, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon butter.
