For a richer, deeper flavor, consider searing the roast in a combination of olive oil and butter. If desired, thicken the braising liquid into a gravy. After removing the roast and vegetables, whisk in a slurry of flour or cornstarch mixed with cold water into the simmering liquid until it reaches your desired consistency. Season to taste. Feel free to add other vegetables to the roast, such as parsnips, celery, or turnips, for added complexity and nutrition.

Follow The Directions
01
StepSeason beef chuck roast generously with salt and black pepper. In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, sear the roast over medium heat until deeply browned on all sides to lock in the juices, about 10 minutes per side.
02
StepPour beef broth and water into the skillet, nestling the roast in the flavorful liquid. Arrange onion wedges and garlic cloves around the beef, creating a bed of aromatics. Spread the peeled carrots atop the onions and garlic, then crown with a sprig of fresh rosemary. Turn the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer gently until the beef is incredibly tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 6 hours.
03
StepWhile the roast simmers, prepare the mashed potatoes. Cover diced potatoes with water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly.
04
StepReturn the drained potatoes to the pot. Add butter and approximately half of the evaporated milk. Mash until smooth. Gradually incorporate the remaining evaporated milk, a little at a time, until you achieve your desired consistency – creamy and luscious. Season generously with salt to taste.
05
StepBefore serving, carefully remove 1 or 2 cloves of garlic from the skillet. Mash these softened cloves directly onto the roast to intensify the garlic flavor. Serve the pot roast hot, accompanied by generous helpings of the creamy mashed potatoes.
