Ingredients

• 4 pounds Beef roast (chuck or ribeye roast)
• 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
• 1.5 tablespoons Coarse black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
• 4 sprigs Fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, quartered
• 3 large Carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2 large Celery stalks, cut into chunks
• 2 cups Beef broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

Place the beef roast on a clean cutting board and pat it dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, coarse black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika to create a rub.

Step 4

Rub the spice mixture evenly over the surface of the beef, ensuring all sides are coated.

Step 5

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Sear the roast on all sides until a golden-brown crust forms, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the roast and set aside.

Step 7

In the same skillet, add the quartered onion, carrot chunks, and celery chunks. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 8

Place the roast back into the skillet, nestling it among the vegetables.

Step 9

Add the sprigs of rosemary and thyme on top of the roast, then pour the beef broth around the sides (not directly on top).

Step 10

Cover the skillet or Dutch oven with a lid or foil, and transfer to the preheated oven.

Step 11

Roast the beef for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (medium-rare) or 145°F (medium).

Step 12

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the roast rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

Step 13

Serve the sliced roast with the roasted vegetables on the side, and drizzle with the flavorful juices from the skillet.
