Equipment

  • Dutch oven

Ingredients

  • 1 chuck roast 3-4 pounds (mine was 3 pounds)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 10 small red potatoes halved
  • 1 white onion sliced
  • 4 large carrots sliced
  • 2 ribs of celery sliced
  • 2 packets brown gravy about .87 ounce each
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Season your roast generously with salt and pepper. Next, sear your roast on each side in the butter in your dutch oven.
  • After searing, remove from heat and add the vegetables and onions.  Add the seasonings over the ingredients in your dutch oven.
  • Mix your brown gravy according to the directions on the package and then add to your dutch oven.
  • Cook at 275 degrees for 3 hours (for a 3 pound roast) or 4 hours (for a 4 pound roast).
  • If using a meat thermometer, the reading should be at least 145 degrees.

Notes

  • If your roast seems tough, cover it up and cook it for 30 minutes longer.
  • When selecting your meat, try to find a chuck roast with a lot of marbling. It will have a lot of flavor.
  • Slice your meat before serving, just like how Golden Corral does.
