Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 3 pounds boneless beef chuck roast
• 6 red potatoes, washed and halved
• 6 carrot, peeled and cut into 2-inch lengths

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Evenly sprinkle roast with flour; set aside. Heat canola oil in an oven-proof Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add roast; brown on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Off heat, pour in water and wine; season with basil, salt, marjoram, thyme, and black pepper. Arrange onion slices on top roast.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 3 hours. Add pearl onions, potatoes, and carrots. Add additional water if roast looks dry. Continue baking, covered, until roast easily pulls apart with a fork, about 1 hour more.
