I have been braising chuck and other roasts for about 7 years. Today, I used your technique. My family and I agreed that it was the best braised meat/sauce that I have ever made. Also, the video is edited very well… easy to follow and showed each step completely.
Here are the instructions from the video: 1) Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 325°F. 2) Sear the Meat: Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a separate skillet over medium-high heat, and sear the roast on all sides until browned (5 mins per side). Transfer the browned roast to a plate for it to wait. 3) Sauté onions in the same skillet you used for searing the meat, until the onions are translucent. 4) Transfer the onions to the dutch oven. Add crushed garlic, cook for 3-4 mins. Add tomato paste, cook for 5 more mins. 5) Turn the heat down, add flour. Cook for 5 mins. 6) Add a cup of red wine. Cook some more. 7) Add unconventional ingredients like Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, and Marmite to enhance flavor and complexity. 8) Add beef stock, whisk it until it comes down to a boil. Once it thickens, add some more beef stock. Bring it to a simmer. 9) Transfer the beef to the dutch oven. Leave the lid slightly ajar (cracked lid method) 10) Cook the pot roast in the oven at 325°F for 2 hours. 11) Prepare the vegetables. Cut the carrots in oblique shape. Prepare the potatoes by cutting them into halves and quarters and submerge them in water for a bit to get rid of excess starch. 12) Add the vegetables to the pot with some thyme. Continue cooking until the vegetables are tender and the meat is fall-apart soft, approximately another hour and a half. 12) Once cooked, let the pot roast rest in its juices for at least 30 mins. 13) Serve the pot roast with the thickened sauce, garnishing with additional fresh herbs if desired.
Before the UA-cams, you would have been the best HomeEc teacher ever. My son and I love your content. You make cooking enjoyable through science and humor, thank you.
I’ve never been a huge fan of roasts, they just never seem to have enough balance of flavors, but I am not kidding I went and today after watching this last night and made it because it sounded to good. I made mash instead of putting the potatoes in and good lord, the W sauce with the balsamic vinegar!? It made me wanna cry. Been watching the channel for 4 years now and love it
Being British, I was basically weened on marmite. But when most people try it for the first time, it tastes like bitter, salty arse paste….which I kind of get. But, it has a very rich, umami, savoury goodness. Even if you don’t fancy it on your toast, put it in sauces. It’s like fish sauce, it smells like….well, you know what, but makes a Thai curry delicious!
The veggie trim goes to the chickens! Get some laying chickens and they really close the loop for the kitchen. They take up little space, eat all your scraps, and in turn give you healthy fresh eggs. Do it Sonny! We've all seen your backyard/ refrigerator graveyard and you have the space.
I'm supposed to be studying for a test that my job literally depends on... and yet, here I am. Learning how to school Grandma on making a pot roast... I really enjoy your content, thanks for making it.
I want to truly thank you for this recipe. The depth of favor is unbelievable. My family was just looking at each other, trying to figure out who was going to get the last piece. Thank you❤
This was my first time ever cooking in a dutch oven, first time cooking any kind of roast, etc. I was skeptical, but man, you were not lying at all. I am so proud of what I've just made. Thank you for an awesome recipe and video man.
OKOKOKOK - I did it, I broke down and bought a 7.5q dutch oven. Have been contemplating buying one for a few years but was waiting for a recipe that just begged me to pull the trigger...this is that recipe. Wifey is at the market shopping the ingredients list as I write this, and I am having a very nice dirty dry 10 olive martini :) My dutch oven will arrive tomorrow morning and can't wait to make this. My fridge is afraid, very very afraid LOL! Thanks Sonny!!!!
Onions are like one my favorite things. You can make some otherwise super lame cauliflower or something SO delicious just by dicing and onion searing it off with some garlic, salt, and black pepper. Takes your tasteless veggies to the top level without adding hardly any calories (if you're into that kinda thing)
I’ve been cooking pot roast since I was in grade school. My mom would have me start it when I got home from school. I have to say, this is by far the best pot roast I have ever made. Thank you so much. Love the techniques you used. Now I need to make the salt mixture. It’s definitely on the list.
I love this channel so much. The recipes have always been great, but the humour and pure sh*t talking between Sonny and Marcus, as well as improved production value, has made it _really_ stand out from the crowd. Plus, Sonny explains techniques and gives great tips. Awesome stuff
I've been cooking nearly this same recipe (with slight variations) in my Le Creuset enameled cast iron pans for at least 40 years. I've always seared the meat in the enameled pan and cursed the way the fond sticks badly and often burns when making the roux. Thanks to your video, this time I browned the meat (bone-in beef short ribs this time) in a heavy carbon steel pan and later transferred them to the Le Creuset pan for braising. What a difference. Clean up was much easier too. I always learn something from watching your videos.
I have been a huge fan of yours for some time now. My husband thinks your refrigerator schtick is crazy dumb, but after tonight's potroast dinner, he also loves you! Now, I did not have quite all the ingredients. Instead of rosemary salt, I used dry rosemary, dry thyme, dry sage, salt and Sgt. Gilbert. I used a good two cups of Cabernet, and instead of beef stock, I used a couple of cans of beef consomme. I used Red Wine Vinegar, Worchester Sauce, Balsamic Glaze. Other than those substitutions, I stuck with your recipe. Our son and grandson were here for dinner, and for the first time ever, our grandson went back for thirds. He is the pickiest of eaters! He often will only eat dinner rolls, but he loved the meat, the potatoes, the carrots and the incredible saucy gravy. This is indeed the best potroast recipe on earth!!
One thing I learned from a really old Thomas Keller video that's stuck with me for decades is to season with acid, not just salt. Once you understand how to do it, the food you make becomes that much better. You don't need a lot either. A little bit goes a long way.
I've been doing roasts for many years and I am still searching for the perfect roast. This one looks terrific. Thanks for what you're doing. Your personality has grown on me.
Made this last night. FANTASTIC!!! Only modification, I didn't have or could find the Marmite so I used a scoop of beef Better than Bouillon. Sooooo good!!! I'll be making this again. Thanks!!
Off topic but I've been cooking for my family for almost 20 years and consider myself a pretty competent cook but I saw your video basting chicken in butter for a pan sauce and I cooked chicken using your techniques for dinner the other night. It was the best chicken I've ever made. Keep up the great content, my family thanks you 😅
I love this duo...ive been watching for 2 years but there is nothing like adding a little marcus to your sonny day! Will be trying this recipe over my own so e shall see boys! ❤❤❤
Hi! I made this two days ago. I chose both of your secondary options: in that I waited the following day to eat it; and I used mashed potatoes (with roasted garlic mushed into them). I guage how good something is by whether my kids will eat it or not. So you get an 11 out of 10 for this recipe. They scarfed it down in about 0.2 seconds. Thanks for the recipe!
Thank you for taking the time to explain about why you don't use your Dutch oven to sear. It's that sort of stuff that is based on experience that's super helpful especially when people explain the why instead of just saying do it this way.
This was the most amazing meal. My entire family now wants me to make it a regular part of the menu at our house. Thank you DudeWhoCanCook - you ROCK!!!
I have just made this recipe and adjuste. I also made the rosemary salt for my 2nd time and I added an additional lemon zest to the recipe and got positive results. Outstanding recipe. I altered these ways. I used my bacon seasoned cast iron to put the sear on my roast, with the extra lemon zest. When you talked about fat and acid I figured if I'm gonna add an extra fat with the bacon in the cast iron that a little more lemon zest couldn't hurt. I used the same lid method almost all the way thru, but for the last 40 mins I put the lid on, instead of letting the meat sit outside for a half hour I just turned the oven off for an hour and let the meat anil
I love how delightfully "kooky" you and Marcus are! I so enjoy your antics AND you are seriously such a good cook! I've been following you for 2 months now and every recipe I've tried is now my go-to. Keep up the hilarity-we all love that part of your video's!!
I watched this video multiple times and read the directions in the description. I have no idea where the lemon zest gets added. Ill edit this comment after i enjoy the meal. Hands down best pot roast I've ever had. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Best pot roast I have ever made. Seriously, this is beyond how I normally can cook. Followed clear instructions and it all came together. Thanks Dude. Huge dent for the fridge from me!
I JUST pulled my pot roast out of the oven following your instructions (swapped marmite with literal beef bouillon paste) and holy crap, the flavor of this is insane! Perfect cold weather dinner! Thank you for sharing this with us. It is now permanently on my rotation
The mom of my best friend and roommate in college would make pot roast on Fridays in a slow cooker when we would have the weekend off and go back home. She worked long hours as an emergency room nurse and that stuff was fantastic. I'm going to make this.
DUDE! Take them carrot peels, salt them, deep fry them, then toss with butter and Parm cheese. You can also batter them and deep fry, then dust with Parm. So freaking good.
Ok this was the best roast I have ever cooked!!!!! It was so amazing I gave myself high fives! My husband who never says anything good or bad about the food I cook he said Good Job Honey!!!!! I’ll be adding this to my recipe box. Can’t wait to try more of your recipes. Thank you sir!
@@Booogieman Food Wishes is a good channel, I also like Kenji Lopez Alt, and a few others, but this channel has given me the most practical advice that I can apply and see results RIGHT away. More than any other channel.
@@djjazzyjeff1232Ha-ha, I am also a long-time fan of Chef Jonh (in fact, I started cooking by myself using his recipes), and I love Kenji too! I just recently found this channel and am already hooked!
@@BooogiemanRight on, I made a couple Chef john dips for the superbowl last year, one was a hit (Cowboy Crack) and the other was a flop, the Homemade French Onion. If I had known what I learned from Sonny here on this channel about "Disarming" raw onions in cold water, it would've made all the difference I think. That's the kind of thing I meant about learning practical advice here, I'd just go binge some of his most popular videos here they're popular for a reason!
Sonny, Amazon delivered the "secret" ingredient just in time!. The richness and complexity of the flavors makes this a total winner! One of your best recipes to date.
7:09 Yeah I was figuring why not do a rough chop carrot and celery, basically a sofrito like for Bolognese, at the step with the onions, so they get the tomato paste & wine flavors too.
Wow! That sauce was great! In the past I had just made pot roast in a slow cooker with standard stock. All the add ins and cooking method make such a difference!
I was the same for a long time, but it seems like every 4th or 5th recipe will get that bitter flavor. Maybe the carrots I buy aren't as good as yours, lol.
I've been doing beef shin lately, it's (relatively) in expensive, delicious and the marrow from the bone just adds that extra body and flavor to the sauce.
It's been really fun and cool seeing this channel grow. Great job and i hope it keeps up! 😊 Yeah made it through the rest of the video and the cooking quality and casual education of the finer pieces is really impressive and interesting! Great production quality too
This looks soooo good 😋 I'm actually making a pot roast right now but I take shortcuts lol I seasoned it, browned it and put in my Pyrex baking dish, because I don't have a Dutch oven. Then I put tons of veggies all around it and sprinkled it with herbs and Lipton onion soup mix. Then instead of water I always pour over a can of Campbell's beef consomme. Then I just cover with foil and cook it for a few hours or so. It isn't as good as this recipe but it is delicious.
We like to make pot roast with a blend of coffee (fresh ground French press) red wine, beef broth, and sometimes dark beer. German smokebier is a fun addition(beer made from barley smoked over alder wood) as well.
I’ve been cooking over 50 years and made my first pot roast ever last weekend using your recipe. It was delicious - esp the sauce. Could have eaten the meat with a spoon it was so tender. Thank you!
@@t-rozbenouameur5304 I have heard that. Usually if I'm making something like this with a gravy/sauce I steer away from that, I have some nice pans that are slightly nonstick (well they used to be, they're kinda old now and the coating has worn away) I dont have a stainless pan or I'd use that probably.
Thanks for the recipe, tips and advise. Personnely i would bave dropped a extra kilo of fine diced onions in the pot at the 2 hour mark they break down and thicken the gravy. I was taught a similar recipe by my grandmother as a stretcher meal. Oma ratio was 1 part meat, 1 part onions, 1 part carrots, 1 part potato's as a base with more vegetables and dumplings as wanted or needed to get the amount needed to feed the family. Marmite yeast extract is a good addition but there is also Bovril and Vegemite each having there own meaty flavours, for cooking we use the own branded yeast extract from our local supermarket and marmite for spreading lightly on buttered toast. Bovril we like as a hot drink, a teaspoon in a mug covered in boiling water and stir for that beef onsite goodness. Take care, God bless one and all.
I made this today with two minor variations: I didn't have Marmite, so I swapped that out for an equal amount of beef Better Than Bouillon, and I also added a tablespoon and a splash of low sodium soy sauce to further bump up the umami factor. Best pot roast I've ever had, thank you Sonny!
Hey, Dude! I took the lemon that I zested for the rosemary salt and added the juice to the pot roast at the very end! Just a smidge more acid and a nice pop of brightness to the gravy, and it was great!
I have used POM brand pomegranate juice in place of red wine when braising short ribs and I absolutely loved it! I may even like it better that way. No more gluten for us so I have to thicken with other starches, or do a reduction.
Ive been using a little bit of red wine vinegar in my pot roasts and stews for years, it adds just a little more of a savory lightly sour bite that people love
If you have a garden, and a space or bin for it, you can turn that veg scrap into compost. Alternatively, if you have a bucket with a lid, you can soak those scraps in water for about 6 months and have a great liquid fertilizer. (Caution: Stinky! Don't get it on you, and use outdoors.) 🌱
That fertilizer is no joke, either. Did a batch with just wild spring grass and some leftover radish tops that outperformed my gf's fox farm fertilizer schedule, just as an anecdote.
Sorry Grandma! 👵
How dare you!
She still loves you.
I have not learned anything about cooking from you. All I’ve learned is how to domestically abuse my “refrigerator” in creative ways.
You're so talented, Sonny. Thanks for the incredibly entertaining and awesome recipes.
Is Uncle Fester your dad ?
My grandma chain smoked the entire time she cooked. I don’t think anything can beat a Marlboro and Oregano Pot Roast, but I’ll give this a shot.
That's the only way to get that authentic smoked flavor
Your grandma was a Lad
Smoked pot roast sounds pretty classy

Marmite is wild because it tastes like boullion but has low salt. Magic underrated kitchen ingredient
I think you meant to say vomit, not bouillon

It's not low salt dude.
@@NigelAinscoe 6 grams salt per 100 grams is very low compared to about 23 grams of salt per 100 grams of boullion. Are you kidding?

And Garlic.
And butter.
Lmao….onions smell even better on a griddle! Anyone who has been to a fair and walked by onions and peppers on a griddle will understand!

That's the kind of thing I meant about learning practical advice here, I'd just go binge some of his most popular videos here they're popular for a reason!
Thanks you guys that is awesome and the best recipe for a cold winter day in Alaska
Sonny, Amazon delivered the "secret" ingredient just in time!. The richness and complexity of the flavors makes this a total winner! One of your best recipes to date.
7:09 Yeah I was figuring why not do a rough chop carrot and celery, basically a sofrito like for Bolognese, at the step with the onions, so they get the tomato paste & wine flavors too.
Making this today, just made the Rosemary Salt. Couldn't find Marmite at the market, Amazon came thru. So excited! Thank you for your great recipies.
Wow! That sauce was great! In the past I had just made pot roast in a slow cooker with standard stock. All the add ins and cooking method make such a difference!
I've been using Worcestershire sauce and Balsamic vinegar for roast for thirty years. 😋 You are the only chef I've seen do this. ❤
I screamed at him yesterday! on Instagram why nobody recently makes beef stroganoff. And now we got this!
How cool is that?!!!
Thanks
Thank you!
I don't peel carrots anymore. Just give them a real good wash.
Using the green side of a clean sponge also works really well
@@thatdudecancook Terrific tip! Thanks, Sonny!
I was the same for a long time, but it seems like every 4th or 5th recipe will get that bitter flavor. Maybe the carrots I buy aren't as good as yours, lol.
I've been doing beef shin lately, it's (relatively) in expensive, delicious and the marrow from the bone just adds that extra body and flavor to the sauce.
I KNOW!! I use it all the time and make everyone I know eat it. You're my fav Sonny, always informative and always fun.
Just made this, the substitution I made was using beef shin instead of chuck. It - was - incredible.
I’m a big time gravy guy -
Looks unreal!
I’m gonna try it for sure.
Also, appreciate the laughs!
Thank you sir👍🏽🤙🏽
Smother me in gravy you big dirty man--

I made this today.
I just wanna say, thank you 🥺
I will be using this recipe so much this winter
11:40 was HILARIOUS im glad you left it in 😂😂😂❤
We have the same exact Dutch oven, color and everything. We just got it and this is the first dish I'm trying with it today.
It's been really fun and cool seeing this channel grow. Great job and i hope it keeps up! 😊
Yeah made it through the rest of the video and the cooking quality and casual education of the finer pieces is really impressive and interesting! Great production quality too
I just watched this and immediately ordered an enameled Dutch oven. Can’t wait to make this one!
This looks soooo good 😋 I'm actually making a pot roast right now but I take shortcuts lol I seasoned it, browned it and put in my Pyrex baking dish, because I don't have a Dutch oven. Then I put tons of veggies all around it and sprinkled it with herbs and Lipton onion soup mix. Then instead of water I always pour over a can of Campbell's beef consomme. Then I just cover with foil and cook it for a few hours or so. It isn't as good as this recipe but it is delicious.
We like to make pot roast with a blend of coffee (fresh ground French press) red wine, beef broth, and sometimes dark beer. German smokebier is a fun addition(beer made from barley smoked over alder wood) as well.
I’ve been cooking over 50 years and made my first pot roast ever last weekend using your recipe. It was delicious - esp the sauce. Could have eaten the meat with a spoon it was so tender. Thank you!
Looks absolutely incredible. Regarding the Dutch stove, what's your opinion on a Crockpot / slowcooker? Would that work as well for this recipe?
Did you ever try the black cast iron dutch oven for your sear ? Might be worth a shot or maybe a new series to try out ? Love the video's bud 👍
The problem with cast iron is the acids eat away at it.
@@t-rozbenouameur5304 I have heard that. Usually if I'm making something like this with a gravy/sauce I steer away from that, I have some nice pans that are slightly nonstick (well they used to be, they're kinda old now and the coating has worn away) I dont have a stainless pan or I'd use that probably.
Just made this earlier this morning and oh my good lord it's amazing ... thank you for posting !!
Sonny , I've made a great pot roast for years, but today I learned a few new tricks that makes it Excellent. Thank you.🤗
I absolutely love making roasts. Definitely going to pick one up at the store to try this recipe out.
Thanks for the recipe, tips and advise. Personnely i would bave dropped a extra kilo of fine diced onions in the pot at the 2 hour mark they break down and thicken the gravy. I was taught a similar recipe by my grandmother as a stretcher meal. Oma ratio was 1 part meat, 1 part onions, 1 part carrots, 1 part potato's as a base with more vegetables and dumplings as wanted or needed to get the amount needed to feed the family. Marmite yeast extract is a good addition but there is also Bovril and Vegemite each having there own meaty flavours, for cooking we use the own branded yeast extract from our local supermarket and marmite for spreading lightly on buttered toast. Bovril we like as a hot drink, a teaspoon in a mug covered in boiling water and stir for that beef onsite goodness. Take care, God bless one and all.
I made this today with two minor variations: I didn't have Marmite, so I swapped that out for an equal amount of beef Better Than Bouillon, and I also added a tablespoon and a splash of low sodium soy sauce to further bump up the umami factor. Best pot roast I've ever had, thank you Sonny!
You are right about the sear and burn. You can't do it in the same pan. I thought I may be doing wrong, but you confirmed
I love making stew, can't beat the classics. So many ways to make it.
Hands down one of the best things I've ever made. Thanks so much for sharing this.
I'm a Vegemite or promite girl, hate marmite BUT they go fab into homemade gravy & I always use it in mine. Thanks mum lol
Hey, Dude! I took the lemon that I zested for the rosemary salt and added the juice to the pot roast at the very end! Just a smidge more acid and a nice pop of brightness to the gravy, and it was great!
Made this last night, it was fabulous! Thanks for the recipe!
Made this for my friends and they absolutely loved it. Thanks for the recipe! Making it today for thanksgiving.
Ahhh! You gave away my secret ingredient! I also use Marmite for making turkey chili that people don't even realize is turkey.
Made this today, didn't have any balsamic, substituted Chinese black rice vinegar. I did have mar-mite though, lol. Came out awesome!!
I have used POM brand pomegranate juice in place of red wine when braising short ribs and I absolutely loved it! I may even like it better that way. No more gluten for us so I have to thicken with other starches, or do a reduction.
Sounds wonderful! I dont cook a lot, but this is definitely on my list for "next"!🥰 (Loved the fridge treatment!🤣🤣🤣)
Did this a couple weeks ago. About 5 people who ate it said it was the best roast ever.
Ive been using a little bit of red wine vinegar in my pot roasts and stews for years, it adds just a little more of a savory lightly sour bite that people love
your content is top notch thank you its actually inspiring me not only cooking but your style of content is so entertaining
I made this for a weekend party a week ago but with beef short ribs instead and it was a hit. I even made a beef stock.
After I saw the fridge get blown up I know this one is a must 😅 👌🏾
If you have a garden, and a space or bin for it, you can turn that veg scrap into compost. Alternatively, if you have a bucket with a lid, you can soak those scraps in water for about 6 months and have a great liquid fertilizer. (Caution: Stinky! Don't get it on you, and use outdoors.) 🌱
That fertilizer is no joke, either. Did a batch with just wild spring grass and some leftover radish tops that outperformed my gf's fox farm fertilizer schedule, just as an anecdote.
@@MetalDave92 best part is the price! 😁
