@seattlehanddoc Red Wine Braised Chuck Roast Ingredients: • Meat & Seasoning: • 4–5 lbs boneless beef chuck roast • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper • All-purpose flour (for dredging) • 2–3 tbsp avocado oil (or vegetable oil) • Aromatics & Vegetables: • 4 celery stalks, chopped • 3 medium carrots, chopped • 1 large onion, chopped • 2 heads of garlic, halved horizontally • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary • Liquid & Seasoning: • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry red wine (e.g., Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot) • 1 quart beef bone broth • 2 tbsp whole black peppercorns Instructions: 1. Prepare the Roast: • Generously season the chuck roast with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. • Dredge the seasoned roast in all-purpose flour, ensuring an even coating. 2. Sear the Roast: • In a large Dutch oven, heat 2–3 tablespoons of avocado oil over medium-high heat. • Sear the roast on all sides until a rich, brown crust forms, approximately 4–5 minutes per side. • Remove the roast and set aside. 3. Sauté Aromatics: • In the same Dutch oven, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. • Sauté over medium heat until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. 4. Deglaze and Combine: • Pour in the entire bottle of red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. • Add the beef bone broth, halved garlic heads, rosemary sprigs, and whole black peppercorns. • Return the seared chuck roast to the pot, ensuring it’s partially submerged in the liquid. 5. Braise the Roast: • Cover the Dutch oven with a lid and place it in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C). • Braise for approximately 3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender. 6. Finish the Sauce: • Remove the roast from the Dutch oven and set aside to rest. • Strain the braising liquid to remove the solids, returning only the liquid to the pot. • Simmer the liquid over medium heat until it reduces to a rich, gravy-like consistency, about 15–20 minutes. 7. Serve: • Slice or shred the chuck roast and serve with the reduced sauce spooned over the top. • This dish pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, polenta, or crusty bread. #bulking #athlete #DinnerIdeas #onepotmeals #cheflife #mealprep
