Ingredients

3 to 3 1/2 lb boneless beef chuck roast

2 onions, cut into large chunks

2 carrots sliced into 1" pcs.

2-3 stalks celery sliced

4 cloves garlic chopped

1/4 cup flour

1 tbl. olive oil or vegatble oil

2 tsp. dried thyme

1 tsp. dried oregano

2 bay leaves

salt/pepper to taste

1 14.5 ounce diced tomatoes (Hunts is by far the best)

3-4 potatoes and 2 more carrots cut up

1 1/2 Tbls. corn starch

2 Tbls. water

Directions

Pre heat oven to 350

Season roast well with salt and pepper,dredge in flour and shake off excess

Brown in hot oil on all sides in a dutch oven untill nice and brown

Take roast out, add chopped veggies and garlic and saute for a few minutes to get them kick started, add 1/2 cup - 1 cup water and deglaze pan alittle (beef broth is good here if you have it)

Add roast back in pan and add spices, alittle more salt/pepper, tomatoes and water just to cover the top of the roast( again this is where beef broth is great, not the end of the world, water is fine, some like a cup of red wine as well, but the tomatoes really give it a rich flavor)

Cover and cook for about 3 hrs at 350

Add some cut up potatoes and couple of more sliced carrots

Cover and cook another 45min. - 1hr. until meat and potatoes are tender.

Take out pot roast and veggies onto a serving platter leaving the juices in the pot.

Mix 1 1/2 Tbls. corn starch with a couple of Tbls. water and add to pot on stove top.

Bring to a boil and lower heat and simmer 3-4 min. to thicken gravy.

Serve gravy on the side with meat and vegetables.

Enjoy!
