Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1 bone-in beef chuck roast (3 to 3 1/2 lb)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
8 medium potatoes, cut in half (4 cups)
4 carrots, cut into 4 pieces
3 stalks celery, cut into 4 pieces
1 medium onion, quartered
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 jar (26 oz) tomato basil pasta sauce
1/2 cup cold water
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. In 12-inch skillet, heat oil over high heat. Sprinkle beef roast with salt and pepper; place in skillet. Cook about 6 minutes or until beef is browned on both sides.
  • Place beef in large shallow roasting pan. Arrange potatoes, carrots, celery and onion around beef. Sprinkle garlic over beef and vegetables. Pour pasta sauce over top.
  • Cover pan with foil; roast 3 hours to 3 hours 30 minutes or until beef and vegetables are tender.
  • Remove beef from pan; place on serving platter. Cut beef across grain into slices; arrange vegetables over top. Cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Skim excess fat from drippings in pan. Place 2 cups pan drippings in 1-quart saucepan (if necessary, add water to equal 2 cups). In tightly covered container, shake cold water and flour until smooth. With saucepan over medium-high heat, gradually stir flour mixture into drippings. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Serve gravy with beef and vegetables.
