  • Total Time: 3 hours 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups baby Yukon gold potatoes
  • 2 large carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 cups apple cider
  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. Season the chuck roast on all sides with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast until browned on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add sliced onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Stir in tomato paste and Dijon mustard, cooking for 1 minute.
  6. Pour in apple cider and beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  7. Return the roast to the pot. Add potatoes, carrots, and celery. Sprinkle with fresh rosemary.
  8. Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to the preheated oven.
  9. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, until the meat is fork-tender.
  10. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the vegetables and braising liquid.
