Time 4h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4-5 lb chuck roast
8 large cloves of garlic
1 Tbsp thyme (2 Tbsp is using fresh)
1 Tbsp parsley (2 Tbsp if using fresh)
8 medium red potatoes, quartered
4 medium onions, quartered
1 small bag baby carrots, cut in half
4 stalk(s) celery, chopped
1 can(s) diced tomatoes (14 oz)
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 c water, divided
sea salt and cracked pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Put 2 Tbsp of olive oil in a skillet. Brown both sides of the chuck roast.
  • 2. Then put into a roaster pan. Next, peel and slice the garlic. Put into the same skillet with drippings and saute until lightly browned. Now put the garlic on top of the roast. Add 2 cups of water to the skillet to loosen any remaining drippings. Pour this over the roast. Sprinkle the thyme and parsley on top of the garlic.
  • 3. Cover and cook for 2 hours at 425 F. While this is cooking prepare your veggies to add to the roast.
  • 4. After 2 hours, add 1 more cup of water, the vegetables and diced tomatoes to the roasting pan. Stir gently.
  • 5. Cook roast for 1 more hour checking for the tenderness of the meat (it's done when the meat shreds with a fork and potatoes are tender, not mush).
