Instructions

1 preheat oven to 300°F
2 Season roast liberally all over with salt and pepper.
3 heat olive oil in the Dutch oven over medium-high heat, when hot add the roast
and let it sit for 5-6 minutes per side. You want to get some color on the
roast. Remove roast to a plate while you add the flavorings.
4 add the onions to the pot and, using a wooden spoon scrape up the browned bits.
If the pan is too dry add a little of the wine or broth. Once the onions are a
little browned and translucent about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1
more minute.
5 Add the red wine and deglaze the entire pan for a few seconds. Add the broth,
Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, thyme, rosemary and bay leaf. Stir to
combine and bring to a low boil for a minute or two.
6 add the roast to the pan, along with its juices. The liquid should cover about
half way up of the roast. If you need more liquid add some now. Cover with the
lid and cook in the oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
7 Remove from the oven, taste for seasonings and adjust. Add the carrots and
potatoes place the cover back on and then back into the oven for 2 more hours.
After 2 hours test the veggies for doneness. Make sure there is still some
liquid in the pot, If you need to add a half of cup of broth if you have it or
just use some water. If needed place back into the oven for another 30 minutes.
8 Serve straight out of the Dutch oven or place on a platter. If you have some
fresh parsley chop up a few leaves and sprinkle on top for presentation.
9 side note: I had more like 2 cups of red wine leftover so I added most of it and
let the onion cooked down in it. I also had to add some water at the end to make
a little more gravy. If you don't want to add wine it is best to use more beef
broth. Only using water would be my last resort. I really wanted depth of flavor
and water just doesn't cut it.
