Rubbing garlic onto the roast before browning adds lots of flavor. With this recipe, the meat and vegetables turn out moist and tender.—Bill Shultz, Walden, New York
Ingredients:
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 beef chuck roast (3 to 3-1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup tomato juice
4 medium carrots, sliced
2 medium onion, chopped
1 cup thinly sliced celery
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
Directions:
1. Rub garlic onto roast, then coat with flour. In a large Dutch oven, brown roast in oil. Add the tomato juice, carrots, onions, celery, bay leaves, salt, thyme and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 3-1/2 hours, turning meat occasionally.
2. Add potatoes; simmer for 30 minutes or until tender. Remove bay leaf. Remove roast and slice; serve with vegetables and gravy. Yield: 4-6 servings.
