Main Ingredients

  • 3 to 4 lbs beef chuck roast look for good marbling
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup beef broth low-sodium
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional

Optional Add-Ins

  • mushrooms optional
  • radishes optional, acts like low-carb potatoes
  • celery or turnips optional, adds texture

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  • Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels, then rub it with salt, pepper, and paprika on all sides.
  • Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast for 3–4 minutes per side until browned.
  • Remove the roast and set aside. In the same pot, sauté sliced onions for 2–3 minutes, then add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
  • Stir in tomato paste, then pour in beef broth. Add thyme and red pepper flakes if using. Stir well.
  • Return the roast to the pot. The liquid should come about halfway up the side of the roast.
  • Cover with lid and place in preheated oven. Cook for 3 to 3½ hours until the beef is fork-tender.
  • Remove from oven and let rest for 10–15 minutes. Shred or slice and serve with broth and onions.
