Prep Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 7 pounds chuck roast
  • 4 tablespoons canola oil
  • 16 cups water
  • 2 envelope soup mix
  • 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 4 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 pound baby carrots
  • 2 onion quartered
  • 4 stalks celery cut into chunks
  • 4 pounds red potatoes scrubbed and quartered
  •  

Instructions
 

  •  
  • Rub the salt and pepper onto the roast.
  • In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, add the oil and allow to heat for 1 minute. Brown the roast on all sides, creating a brown crust.
  • To the stockpot, add all of the ingredients EXCEPT the carrots, onion, and potatoes.
  • Bring the liquid to a boil. Cover the stockpot and reduce the heat to simmer on low for 2 to 2 ½ hours.  Check after 1 hour and add more liquid if needed.
  • After 2 hours, add the vegetables. Continue simmering for 30 minutes more or until the vegetables are fork tender. Remove the roast and vegetables from the liquid. 
  • If a gravy is desired, whisk together 1 cup water and ¼ cup corn starch. Pour the mixture into the pot with the remaining liquid and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring as needed until thickened.
