French Onion Pot Roast

A savory and tender pot roast infused with the rich flavors of French onion soup.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 3 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 packet French onion soup mix
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 bay leaf

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add the sliced onions and cook until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  3. Stir in beef broth, French onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, black pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer.
  4. Return the seared roast to the pot. Cover and cook on low heat for 3-4 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
  5. Remove the bay leaf before serving. Shred the meat slightly and serve with the onions and broth.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
