Name: Braised Pot Roast with Fresh Cranberries and Rosemary
Prep time: 30
Cook time: 90
Total time: 4 h 30 min
Yield: 8
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: boneless Chuck Roast, trimmed; extra virgin olive oil; Freshly ground black pepper, divided; large carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces; cloves garlic, halved; large stalks celery, cut into 2-inch pieces; medium yellow onion, roughly chopped; cups beef broth; fresh or frozen whole cranberries; Dijon mustard; can whole berry cranberry sauce; sprigs fresh rosemary, plus chopped rosemary for garnish; medium red-skinned potatoes, halved

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325°F. Heat oil in a large, heavy pot over MEDIUM-HIGH heat. Season Chuck Roast all over with 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper and cook, turning once, until deeply browned on both sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a large plate and return pot to the heat.
Step 2

Add carrots, garlic, celery, and onion and cook, stirring occasionally (and reducing heat to MEDIUM to avoid burning, if needed), for 5 minutes more. Transfer vegetables to plate with beef.
Step 3

Add broth, cranberries, mustard, cranberry sauce, 1 tsp. salt, and ¼ tsp. pepper to the pot and whisk to combine, scraping up any browned bits. Nestle the roast in the pot, along with any accumulated juices from the plate, with the vegetables and rosemary sprigs tucked around and over it. Bring to a boil over MEDIUM-HIGH heat, cover the pot, arrange in the oven, and cook until just starting to get tender, 1 ½-2 hours.
Step 4

Carefully uncover the pot, gently stir in potatoes, and re-cover the pot. Continue cooking until beef pulls apart when shredded with a fork and potatoes are very tender, about 1 hour more.
Step 5

Transfer roast and vegetables to a large platter, spoon some of the pan juices generously over the top, and garnish with chopped rosemary. Degrease the remaining pan juices, if you like, and serve drizzled over each serving.
