1 pot roast (about 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 pounds - chuck or other suitable pot roast)
5 medium cloves garlic (halved)
Dash salt
Dash pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium onion (quartered and sliced)
Optional: 4 ounces mushrooms (small whole or sliced)
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups red wine (such as pinot noir or cabernet)

Add mushrooms, if using, and cook for 2 minutes longer. Stir in flour and cook, stirring, for about 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in the red wine and beef broth. Continue cooking, stirring, until the liquids are thickened and bubbly.
