Step-by-Step Instructions for Recipes cards
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Season the beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat.
Tip: Ensure the oil is shimmering before adding the beef for a proper sear.
- Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the pot and set aside.
Tip: Browning enhances flavor, don't skip this step!
- In the same pot, add onions and garlic, cooking until onions are translucent. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
Tip: Add a splash of broth to deglaze if needed.
- Return the beef to the pot, add beef broth and thyme. Bring to a simmer, then cover the pot and transfer to the oven.
Tip: Ensure the liquid covers at least half of the beef.
- Roast in the oven for 3-4 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Check occasionally to ensure there's enough liquid, adding more broth if necessary.
Tip: Longer cooking at low temperature maximizes tenderness.
- Once done, remove the beef from the pot and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Tip: Resting allows juices to redistribute, ensuring moist meat.
- Serve with the cooked onions and a spoonful of the pot juices drizzled over the top for added flavor.
Tip: For a thicker sauce, reduce the pot juices on the stovetop.
Pro Tips & Notes for Recipes cards
- Always let beef rest before slicing to maintain juiciness.
- Use low-sodium broth to control salt levels.
- Adjust herbs to taste for a personalized flavor.
- Ensure beef is submerged halfway in liquid for even cooking.
- If using fresh herbs, double the amount for a more intense flavor.
Storage & Reheating for Recipes cards
Storage: Proper storage and reheating are key to maintaining the quality of your beef dish. At room temperature, keep the beef for no longer than 2 hours. For refrigeration, store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. When freezing, wrap tightly in foil followed by a plastic wrap, and store for up to 3 months. For reheating, the oven is preferred: warm at 300°F (150°C) until hot, ensuring even heating. Microwaving can dry out the meat; if used, add a splash of broth and cover to retain moisture. To restore texture, always reheat slowly and cover with foil to prevent drying.
