Ingredients

• 3 pounds Beef chuck roast
• 1 tablespoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 pieces Carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
• 4 pieces Potatoes, quartered
• 1 cup Beef broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary, and dried thyme.

Step 3

Rub the olive oil over the surface of the beef roast, then generously apply the herb and spice mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.

Step 4

Place the beef roast in a roasting pan, surrounded by the carrot chunks and potato quarters.

Step 5

Pour the beef broth into the bottom of the roasting pan, which will keep the beef moist and help cook the vegetables.

Step 6

Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil, sealing the edges tightly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare to 160°F for medium.

Step 8

Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the top of the beef to brown.

Step 9

Once done, let the beef rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy and flavorful roast.

Step 10

Serve the beef slices alongside the roasted vegetables, and spoon some of the pan juices over the top for added flavor.
