Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 to 4 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup apple vinegar
  • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes with juices
  • 1½ cups Arborio rice
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth (for risotto)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Pat the beef chuck roast dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear the roast until golden brown on all sides.
  3. Remove the roast and sauté onions, carrots, and celery in the same pot until softened. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  4. Pour in apple vinegar to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits; simmer for about 2 minutes.
  5. Return the roast to the pot along with beef broth, diced tomatoes, oregano, basil, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer and cover.
  6. Place in the oven and cook for about 3–4 hours until tender.
  7. For risotto: In a separate saucepan, heat chicken or vegetable broth. In a skillet, toast Arborio rice in olive oil for 2–3 minutes before gradually adding warm broth while stirring continuously until creamy.
  8. Stir in Parmesan cheese at the end and season to taste.
  9. Serve pot roast alongside risotto garnished with fresh parsley.
