Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chuck roast

    fat trimmed, then cut into 1/2 - 1-inch chunks (mine was 2.5 pounds, then 2 pounds after fat trimmed) 


  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour replace with gluten free all-purpose, if necessary

  • 4 carrots sliced into coins
  • 2 ribs celery sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1/2 cup red wine I used cabernet sauvignon - could replace with more broth or water, but then you may want to adjust seasonings
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 bay leaves
