Pot Roast

This pot roast recipe is not only delicious and comforting but also a cost-effective way to feed a crowd. It calls for well-marbled chuck roast, which ensures a tender result that’s not the least bit dry. A mixture of carrots, potatoes, and onions creates a built-in side dish while the savory cooking liquid—a blend of red wine, beef broth, tomato paste, and herbs—is just right for spooning on top. You’ll need to set aside about four hours for it to cook, but most of that is hands off. Perfect for a cool fall or winter night, this pot roast recipe is a favorite for good reason.
