Course: Main Dish
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 lb. chuck roast
  • small bag carrots roughly chopped
  • 2 white onions whole if small or cut in half if large - or 1 bag pearl
  • 2 cloves garlic whole
  • 4 potatoes split down the middle lengthwise
  • 1 cup water
  • olive oil barely cover bottom of pan
  • to taste salt & pepper
  • flour to coat top & bottom of roast

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Heat oil in Dutch oven on top of stove (Let oil get really hot to sear well). Flour and season both sides of roast. Sear on both sides. Lay garlic on top of meat and add rest of ingredients and cover. Bake for 2 - 3 hours (until you can stick a fork into the meat and it feels tender).
  2. Use drippings to make gravy to go alongside.
