Return the seared chuck roast to the pot. Add fresh rosemary, thyme, and a bay leaf on top of the roast.

Step 9

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the pot with a lid and transfer to a preheated 325°F (163°C) oven.

Step 10

Cook for 2 hours, then remove the pot from the oven. Add quartered potatoes to the pot, stirring to combine.

Step 11

Return the pot to the oven and cook for an additional 2 hours, or until the roast is fork-tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
