Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 medium carrots, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 3 tablespoons whole grain mustard
• 3 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme
• 1 leaf bay leaf
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Cut the beef chuck roast into 2-inch chunks and season with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 2

In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef chunks in batches to ensure a good sear on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 3

Lower the heat to medium and add the diced onion and chopped carrots to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and smoked paprika, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the whole grain mustard, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Step 6

Return the seared beef to the pot and add the fresh thyme and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and reduce the heat to low.

Step 7

Let the beef stew for 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fork tender.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir this slurry into the stew and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.

Step 9

Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 10

Serve the stewed beef with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread for a complete meal. Enjoy!
