Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 4 pound chuck roast boneless
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh Rosemary finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 can Dr. Pepper
- 2 carrots chopped into 1 inch pieces
- 1 lb potatoes cut into 1 inch thick pieces
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 cup Maraschino cherries whole or halved - pitted
Instructions
- Place a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, and once hot, add two tablespoons of canola oil.
- Pat dry the beef with paper towels and season it with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Add the pot roast to the pan and brown on both sides, 4-5 minutes on each side. It should be nicely browned. Set aside.
- Add the onions to the same pan and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring.
- Add the garlic, thyme, rosemary, oregano, stir and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add ½ cup of the broth and scrape the bottom of the pan well.
- Add the rest of the broth, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, and Dr. Pepper. Stir to combine.
- Add back the beef, potatoes, and cherries, and top with fresh rosemary and bay leaves.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Cover and cook in the oven for 3-4 hours or until fork-tender.
- Remove and discard the bay leaf before serving.
- To make the sauce into a glaze, strain the liquid out. After it is done cooking, spoon, and discard the fat. Simmer until reduced.
- Add the remaining sauce to a small pan and cook on medium heat until thickened about 8-10 minutes. You can also mix two tablespoons of cornstarch with 1/4 cut water and add the mixture to the saucepan.
- When serving, garnish with fresh parsley, a few maraschino cherries, and herbs.
