Description

I first made this dish to impress my new mother-in-law. She loved it. Luckily, the oven does all the work in this never-fail recipe. — Kelly Anderson, Glendale, California

For Two (with some adjustments):brown chuck, both sides, under broiler, saute vegetables for about 8 minutes in large pot, add liquid and browned meat on top of sauted vegetables. Cook 325 for 3 hours. All of the liquid had evaporated after 3 hours so watch your oven pot during the last hour of cooking.Chuck: 1/2 lb chuck.Vegetables: 8oz mushrooms sliced, 1/2 onion diced, 8 baby carrots whole, 2 stalks celery diced, 5 garlic cloves sliced.Liquid: I cup water with 1 teaspoon beef bouillon, 4 Tablespoons white wine, 1 Tablespoon Balsamic vinegar. Served with rolls if you want a carbohydrate. Pass Horseradish Cream: 3 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt, or sour cream and 2 teaspoons Golds prepared Horseradish. We have added this to our rotation.

We did NOT like this. The balsamic vinegar made everything way too sweet. I should have known better than to put in the full 1/2 cup that was called for. Disappointed...

It had me at balsamic vinegar. What a delicous and temder roast. I never can get my husband to eat sweet potatoes unless they are with this dish.

We really enjoyed this recipe. I added some fresh mushrooms and baby red potatoes. The next time I might cut down on the balsamic by just a smidge. I will make this recipe many times over.

I loved it, but my kids did not like it at all. I thought it had really good flavor and loved the sweet potatoes in it. I doubled the sweet potato and didn't use any turnips.

Good twist to a traditional classic! My husband really liked the sweet potato addition. One thing I changed was I slow cooked this recipe in the crock pot for 8 hours on low.

This recipe was nasty. Nobody ate it will never make this again.

I am making this recipe for the 5th time since the October issue--oh yea!!!Four different groups of eaters have rated it outstanding. I have used wine-usually a cab or merlot-each time, but today I will only use broth. I have substituted parsnips for the turnips 3 times. I think the balsamic really gives it that special flavor. Last time I cooked it almost twice as long on the stove; I also tripled the thyme (accidently spilled). It was the best ever--maybe sweeter? That may have been due to the longer reduction of liquid. This recipe is my new "company's coming" favorite!

This was the best pot roast I have ever made. It was tender and flavorful. I substituted dried sage leaves, estimating the amount. It worked out fine. Definitely a keeper recipe.

Outstanding! I made this last night - the beef came out tasty and tender - loved it!

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless beef chuck roast (3 to 4 pounds)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 celery ribs with leaves, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
  • 3 medium turnips, peeled and quartered
  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup dry red wine or beef broth
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 small bunch fresh thyme sprigs
  • 4 fresh sage leaves
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup cold water

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 325°. Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Brown roast on all sides. Remove from pan. Add celery, carrots and onion to the pan; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until fragrant. Add turnips, sweet potato and garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add wine, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Stir in broth, vinegar and herbs. Return roast to pan; bring to a boil. Bake, covered, 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is tender. Remove beef and vegetables; keep warm.

Serve with pot roast and vegetables. Yield: 8 servings.
