King Chuck Roast Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a frying pan, mix olive oil, Sea Salt and Pepper. Heat pan on medium high. Pan Sear both sides of roast, making sure you have a golden brown on each side. This normally only takes 5-10 minutes, depending on heat. **If you are adding minced garlic, add garlic to saute pan at this time.
• 2. Clean Carrots, peel and slice into 2" wedges. Do the same with the Onion. Clean Celery, cut into 1/2" pieces. Clean yellow Potatoes, cut into quarters. Set aside.
• 3. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Using large deep sided roasting pan, add 1/2 cup of wine and 1/2 of water to pan.
• 4. Place Roast into pan, arrange carrots, potatoes, onion and celery around the roast in the pan. Cover with Foil.
• 5. Bake for 3 to 4 Hours, depending on size of Roast. I normally cook mine for 3-1/2 hours at 350 degrees.
• 6. You can make gravy, just remove roast and veggies when done cooking. Spoon off grease. Add remaining juices to a saucepan, adding 1/2 teaspoonfuls of CornStarch, with water to mixture to thicken. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.

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.
