Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 large, sliced onion
• 4 large, peeled and cut into chunks carrots
• 3 cut into chunks celery stalks

Directions

Step 1

Step 2

Season the beef chuck roast with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 3

In a large Dutch oven, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the roast in the hot oil until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once browned, remove the roast from the pot and set aside.

In the same pot, add the sliced onion, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 6

Add the carrots, celery, and minced garlic, cooking for another 2 minutes.

Step 7

Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Step 8

Return the roast to the pot. Add the fresh rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves.

Step 9

Scatter the button mushrooms around the roast.

Step 10

Cover the Dutch oven with a lid and place it in the preheated oven.

Step 11

Cook for approximately 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and easy to pull apart with a fork.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and discard the herb sprigs and bay leaves.

Step 13

Let the roast rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Step 14

Serve warm with the vegetables and strained cooking juices.
