- 3 pounds boneless chuck roast ,trimmed and cut into chunks no bigger than 1 ½ inches
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 cups chopped baby portabella mushrooms
- 2 cups chopped carrots
- 1 ½ cups chopped red onion
- 3 cloves garlic ,minced
- 1 ¼ cup red concord grape wine
- ½ cup flour
- 4 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 Bay leaves
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
In a shallow bowl, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Place cut chuck roast on a large plate, sprinkle the flour mixture over the beef, tossing with your hands to coat evenly in the flour. Shake off excess flour. Add two tablespoon olive oil to a dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, brown the beef, working in batches, adding additional olive oil between batches. Remove browned beef to a large plate, set aside.
Once all the beef is browned, add the beef broth and red wine to the dutch oven, scrapping up the browned bits from the bottom with a large spoon. Stir in tomato paste. Return the browned beef to the dutch oven, add the bay leaves and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
After 1 hour, add the chopped carrots and onions to the dutch oven, continue to simmer, uncovered for ½ hour. Add the chopped mushrooms and garlic, simmer for an additional ½ hour, uncovered, or until the beef and carrots are tender. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
