Categories     Roasts

Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3-4 lb chuck roast
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 c all purpose flour
1 large onion
4-5 beef bouillon, cubes
water to cover
1/4-1/13 c corn starch (depending on how much water used to cover roast)
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cut onion into large chunks.
  • 2. Coat roast with flour.
  • 3. Heat oil in large pan. Add roast and onion to oil. Brown roast on all sides.
  • 4. Cover roast with water and add 4 bullion cubes. Simmer on low for 3-4 hours or longer.
  • 5. Remove roast from pan. Taste liquid. If flavor tastes a little weak, crush 5th bullion cube and add to liquid. Make a slurry by placing corn starch in small bowl and dissolving in COLD water (corn starch will not dissolve in hot water). Bring liquid to a boil and add slurry a little at a time until disired thickness is achieved. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • 6. Cut meat into serving size pieces and place into serving dish.Pour gravy on top and serve. This gravy is excellent on mashed potatoes.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few modifications to suit my taste. I used a different cut of beef, added some extra vegetables, and used a different type of wine. It turned out delicious!
