Balsamic Pot Roast

11 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 (5 pound) blade chuck roast
  • 2 cups balsamic vinegar
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
  • 1 tablespoon dried savory
  • 1 tablespoon dried mint
  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 cups beef stock

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine roast, vinegar, olive oil, salt, peppercorns, savory, mint, rosemary, and thyme in a resealable plastic bag. Coat roast with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate roast in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  2. 2
    Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  3. 3
    Melt butter in an oven-safe pot over medium heat. Transfer roast to hot butter, reserving marinade in bag. Cook roast until browned on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Place roast on a work surface.
  4. 4
    Pour marinade into the pot and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Add broth and simmer until sauce is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Return roast to pot and cover.
  5. 5
    Cook roast in the oven until meat falls apart when poked with a fork or knife, 6 to 8 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Serve meat with reduced sauce.
