Ingredients

Scale

2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into 2-inch chunks
2 medium sweet onions, chopped
3 large carrots, sliced
2 stalks celery, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups low-sodium beef broth
1 cup dry red wine
1 tsp dried thyme
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil for sautéing

Instructions

Season the beef chunks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add onions, carrots, and celery; sauté until softened and onions are translucent.
Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute).
Pour in red wine and deglaze the pot by scraping up brown bits; simmer until reduced by half (about 5 minutes).
Return beef to the pot and add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Bring to a gentle boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for at least 2 hours or until beef is fork-tender.
Adjust seasoning as needed before serving over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
