Equipment

  • Equipment Needed: Oven, roasting pan, skillet, meat thermometer, cutting board, sharp knife

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 3-4 pounds of beef roast such as chuck or round
  • 2 cups of red wine preferably Chianti or Sangiovese
  • 2 cups of beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 2 stalks of celery diced
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 2 sprigs of fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  • Sear the Meat: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the roast to the skillet and sear on all sides until browned (about 3-4 minutes per side). This step locks in the juices and enhances the flavor.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, carrots, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
  • Deglaze the Pan: Pour in 1 cup of the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Allow the wine to simmer for a couple of minutes to reduce slightly.
  • Transfer to Roasting Pan: In a roasting pan, place the seared beef roast. Pour the sautéed vegetables and the remaining cup of red wine over the roast. Add the beef broth and herbs (rosemary and thyme) to the pan.
  • Roast in the Oven: Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
  • Rest the Meat: Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and let it rest, covered loosely with foil, for about 15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
  • Slice and Serve: After resting, slice the roast against the grain into thick slices. Serve with the pan juices spooned over the top and your favorite sides, like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
  • Variations
  • Herb Variation: Try adding fresh parsley or sage for a different flavor profile.
  • Wine Substitution: If you prefer a lighter option, you can use white wine or even broth for a non-alcoholic version.
  • Vegetable Variations: Add potatoes or parsnips to the roasting pan for a one-pan meal.
