Ingredients

• 3 pounds beef chuck roast
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large yellow onion, sliced
• 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks
• 4 medium potatoes, quartered
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 2 leaves bay leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and onion powder.

Step 3

Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels, then rub the spice mixture all over the roast to season it evenly.

Step 4

In a large Dutch oven or heavy oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the roast from the pot and set it aside.

Step 6

In the same pot, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.

Step 7

Add the carrots, parsnips, and potatoes to the pot, arranging them around the edges.

Step 8

Return the roast to the pot, placing it in the center of the vegetables.

Step 9

Pour the beef broth and apple cider vinegar into the pot, ensuring the liquid reaches about halfway up the roast.

Step 10

Add the thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves to the pot.

Step 11

Cover the pot with its lid and place it in the preheated oven.

Step 12

Cook the roast for about 4 hours, basting with the liquid every hour, until the meat is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 13

Remove the pot from the oven and let the roast rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 14

Serve the Shawnee Roast with the cooked vegetables and spoon over some of the flavorful broth.
