Introduction
This classic Sunday pot roast is a hearty, comforting meal featuring tender beef, potatoes, carrots, and onions in a rich savory broth. It can be easily prepared using three different methods: traditional oven-braising, slow-cooking, or quick pressure-cooking in an Instant Pot.
Step 1
【Oven Method】Season all sides of the beef roast (chuck roast) with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
【Oven Method】Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until a nice crust forms, about 3 minutes per side.
Step 3
【Oven Method】Remove the roast from the pot. Add minced garlic and saute for 1 minute. Deglaze the pot by pouring in beef broth and red cooking wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom.
Step 4
【Oven Method】Place the roast back into the pot. Surround it with large chunks of sweet onions, red potatoes, and baby carrots. Pour Worcestershire sauce directly over the meat and place a sprig of fresh rosemary on top.
Step 5
【Oven Method】Cover with the lid and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 3 hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Searing the beef first is highly recommended as it locks in the juices and creates a delicious caramelized crust.
Cut the onions into large chunks and potatoes into bite-sized pieces so they do not overcook and turn to mush during long cooking processes.
For the Instant Pot method, always do a 15-minute natural pressure release instead of a quick release to prevent the meat from becoming tough.
Different cuts of beef work best for different methods: chuck roast is excellent for oven braising, brisket holds up well to slow cooking, and round roast is ideal for the Instant Pot.
