This is a dressed up yankee-style pot roast. No tomato sauce here! The herbs and spices really blend together well for a delicious gravy. You could probably finish this in the crock pot as well. Thicken the gravy at the end with a slurry made from flour and water.
Ingredients:
4 lbs boneless chuck roast (bone-in ok too)
2 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons celery salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 piece fresh gingerroot, peeled
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon marjoram
1/2 teaspoon thyme
5 -6 whole allspice
2 bay leaves
1 cup beef stock
1/2 cup red wine
potatoes or carrots or onions or celery, etc
Directions:
1. Mix together the flour, celery salt, mustard and pepper.
2. Dredge the roast on all sides with the mixture.
3. Heat the veggie oil in a Dutch oven.
4. Add the roast and brown on all sides.
5. Add the remaining ingredients except for the veggies.
6. Cover and simmer 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
7. Add veggies the last hour if using.
8. Make a slurry from flour and water and thicken the gravy as desired.
