Print Recipe

A comforting Balsamic Pot Roast that transforms your dinner table into the coziest spot in your home, perfect for family meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Chuck Roast
  • 3 Carrots, thick slices
  • 1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 cup Beef Broth (optional)
  • 1 Onion, diced (optional)
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Begin by chopping your vegetables—thick slices of carrots and rough dice on onions, if using. Set them aside.
  2. Brown the Chuck Roast: Heat a large pot over medium-high heat with a splash of oil. Season the roast with salt and pepper, and sear it for 4-5 minutes per side.
  3. Sauté Aromatics: Remove the roast and toss in the onions, sautéing until soft, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add the Rest of the Ingredients: Return the roast to the pot, sprinkle in garlic and carrots, then pour in balsamic vinegar and optional broth.
  5. Simmer Low and Slow: Cover and simmer on low for 2-3 hours or bake at 325°F (160°C).
  6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the roast reaches 200°F (93°C) and can be easily shredded.
  7. Final Touches: Let the roast rest for 15 minutes before slicing, and thicken the sauce if desired.

Notes

This dish is even better the next day! Excellent for pot roast sandwiches with crusty bread.
