Ingredients
- 3 pounds chuck roast
- salt and pepper
- 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 3 large halved and sliced onions sliced 1/2-inch thick
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic, about 3 cloves
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Heat half of the 4 tablespoons olive oil, in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the 3 pounds chuck roast all over with salt and pepper.
- Cook the roast for 3 minutes on each side to develop a browned crust. Remove the roast and set it aside on a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining olive oil along with the 3 large halved and sliced onions to the Dutch oven, cover and cook the onions, removing the lid to stir occasionally until tender and cooked down, about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the lid and cook for 10-15 more minutes, stirring occasionally until the onions are browned. While the onions cook, preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Once the onions are well browned (caramelized), add in 1 tablespoon minced garlic,1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper, and cook for a couple of minutes.
- Whisk the 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour into the onions, then slowly whisk in the 3 cups beef broth, 1 cup red wine, and 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce.
- Add the roast back to the Dutch oven and spoon the gravy mixture over it. Place the lid on the Dutch oven and put it into the preheated oven.
- Bake the roast for 4 hours or until the meat falls apart easily. Shred the roast and serve fresh!
