Pioneer Woman Pot Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously sprinkle the chuck roast with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast in the pot for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown. Remove to a plate.
• Add the carrots and onions to the pot and cook until brown, 1 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for another minute. Turn off the heat and add the whiskey, deglazing and scraping the bottom of the pot. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway. Add the rosemary and thyme.
• Cover the pot with the lid, transfer to the oven and roast until the meat is fall-apart tender, about 4 hours. Break the beef apart with tongs or whatever cutlery you have on hand and serve with some of the carrots from the pot, the whiskey sauce and a side of mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy ovenproof pot (with a lid) over high heat. Salt and pepper both sides of the roast, then sear it for about a minute on one side and a minute on the other side. Remove the meat to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium high and add the tomato paste, celery, garlic and onions. Stir it around and cook until the vegetables start to soften and the tomato paste releases its flavor, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the glorious wine, then stir and scrape the pot to get up all the browned bits on the bottom. Pour in the broth, then stir in the marmalade.
• Return the meat to the pot and top it all off with the potatoes, carrots, parsnips, rosemary and thyme. Push the veggies and herbs into the liquid, then put the lid on the pot, transfer to the oven and roast until the meat is fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours. (Mmmm. The liquid becomes something magical.)
• Transfer the roast to a serving dish (if it falls apart that's a good sign!) and place the vegetables all around it, then spoon on as much sauce from the pot as you'd like. Total, unmistakable, comfort food.

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:

• preheat oven to 275. Heat large pot or dutch oven over medium high heat. Add olive oil and let it get really hot.
• Salt and pepper the chuck roast on both sides. Cut the onions from root to tip, cut the ends off, and peel the skin off. Brown onions on both sides in dutch oven, then remove to a plate. Thoroughly wash carrots, chop and add to dutch oven and toss them around until slightly brown, about a minute or so.
• Remove the carrots and allow pot to become hot again.
• Sear roast about 1 minute per side and then remove to plate.
• Turn heat to high and deglaze the pot adding one cup of the beef broth.
• Add Meat back to pot, followed by carrots and onions. Pour beef broth into pot to cover the meat half way. Tuck thyme and rosemary into the broth, if you are using them.
• Cover pot and roast for 3-5 hours depending on the size of your roast. For a 3 pound roast, allow 3-3 1/2 hours, for a 4 to 5 pound roast, cook for 4 to 5 hours.
• When cooking time is over, check for doneness; insert a fork into meat, the fork should go in very easily and the meat should be very tender.
• Remove to cutting board and slice against the grain.
• Serve.
• Congratulations, you're a hero.
