Total time: 3 h 20 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 3 lbs beef chuck roast; 6 slices of bacon; 1 onion, chopped; 4 cloves of garlic, minced; 2 carrots, peeled and sliced; 2 celery stalks, sliced; 1 cup beef broth; 1/2 cup red wine (optional); 2 tbsp tomato paste; 1 tsp dried thyme; 1 tsp dried rosemary; Salt and pepper to taste; 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a large oven-safe Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until it becomes crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and set it aside.
Season the beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. In the same pot with the bacon drippings, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the pot and set it aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the tomato paste, dried thyme, and dried rosemary, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Slowly pour in the beef broth and red wine, if using, while scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Return the beef chuck roast and bacon to the pot, nestling them in the vegetable mixture. Cover the pot with a lid and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Roast the bacon-flavored pot roast for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender and easily pulls apart.
Once done, remove the pot from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing the beef.
Serve the Bacon Flavored Pot Roast with the vegetables and pan juices spooned over the top. Enjoy the rich and savory flavors of this gluten-free twist on a classic dish.
