French Onion Braised Chuck Roast

• total time: 4 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients

one chuck roast (3-5 Ibs, cut into pieces so it can fit into your Dutch oven)

1/2 cup flour

sea salt to taste

freshly cracked pepper

two cups beef bone broth

one cup dry white wine (or sub more bone broth)

one tbsp Worcestershire sauce

one tbsp Dijon mustard

Directions

preheat oven to 325°F

start by generously salting chuck roast on all sides and dusting with flour. i like to cut mine up into smaller pieces so they braise more evenly

heat a Dutch oven over medium heat sear off chuck roast. once it’s browned on all sides, remove it from the pan and set aside

and add butter and onions to the Dutch oven. sautee until they're carmelized (about 40 minutes, stirring every five or so minutes)

deglaze the pan with wine and bone broth. add Worcestershire and Dijon

add chuck back into the pot, add more salt, thyme, and pepper

add the lid and braise in the oven for 3-4 hours or until the meat is falling apart

serve with mashed potatoes or some crusty bread and enjoy 🤤
