# What you'll need:

→ Beef

01 - 1 (3 to 4 lb) chuck roast
02 - 2 tsp kosher salt
03 - 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
04 - 2 tbsp olive oil

→ Vegetables

05 - 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
06 - 3 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks
07 - 3 medium Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 2-inch pieces
08 - 2 medium onions, quartered
09 - 4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
10 - 2 celery stalks, cut into large pieces

→ Braising Liquid & Seasonings

11 - 2 cups gluten-free beef broth
12 - 1 cup dry red wine or additional beef broth
13 - 2 tbsp tomato paste
14 - 2 tsp dried thyme
15 - 1 tsp dried rosemary
16 - 2 bay leaves

# Method:

01 - Preheat the oven to 325°F.
02 - Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels and season all sides evenly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
03 - Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deeply browned. Remove the roast and set aside.
04 - Add onions, carrots, parsnips, potatoes, celery, and garlic to the Dutch oven. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
05 - Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute to develop flavor.
06 - Pour in dry red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
07 - Return the seared roast to the pot. Add beef broth, dried thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves so the liquid reaches halfway up the roast.
08 - Cover the pot and transfer to the oven. Roast for 2.5 to 3 hours, turning the roast once halfway through, until the beef is tender and vegetables are cooked through.
09 - Remove bay leaves. Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
