I have been trying for a rich, beefy, flavorful pot roast for years and unable to create exactly that until now. Finally! This roast is a simple cut of beef, inexpensive and full of flavor. This is a slow braising process in the oven. I added carrots, onions, and garlic in the last 1.5 hours and served with Recipe #336506 for a wonderful Sunday night dinner.

RICH BRAISED CHUCK POT ROAST IN THE CROCK POT



Rich Braised Chuck Pot Roast in the Crock Pot image

This is my pot roast recipe altered to be done in the crock pot.**Warning, this has tons of flavor! I like a lot of vegetables with my roast but don't want them cooking all day into a vegie mash. So in this recipe I add them after the roast has cooked. I find I can go to work all day while the roast is cooking, come home at 5ish and remove the roast, let that rest while the vegies cook. Delicious served as is or with garlic bread and a green salad.

Time 4h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 to 4 pounds boneless beef chuck roast
2 to 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning (or Creole)
Dash ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions (halved, sliced)
8 ounces small whole mushrooms (or thickly sliced mushrooms)
2 medium bell peppers, chopped (red or combination of red and green or other colors)
1 cup dry red wine
1 cup beef stock (or chicken stock, preferably low sodium or unsalted)
2 1/2 pounds potatoes (red, peeled, halved or quartered)
Optional: 2 cups baby carrots

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Trim the roast and remove any visible excess fat. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Rub the pot roast all over with the Cajun seasoning and then sprinkle lightly with pepper.
  • Put the pot roast in a resealable food storage bag or bowl. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate the roast for at least 1 hour.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat; add the onions and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown. Stir the onions frequently to keep them from scorching.
  • Add the whole or sliced mushrooms and chopped bell peppers to the onions and cook for about 3 minutes longer.

  • Add the seasoned pot roast and sear it on all sides. Add the cooked vegetables back to the pan along with the wine and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the liquids have reduced by about one-quarter to one-third.
  • Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, or until the pot roast is very tender.
  • Add the potatoes and carrots, if using, and continue cooking for about 30 to 45 minutes longer, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Serve the pot roast sliced or shredded.
  • Enjoy!
