This fork tender pot roast is a deliciously hearty meal. Thick sliced portions of beef chuck roast are amply seasoned with salt and pepper before searing to a dark golden brown. The beef is then nestled in a bed of mirepoix and topped with a rich, wine-laced braising liquid before slow cooking. Baby potatoes are the classic accompaniment to this traditional dish, which are steamed until tender and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. A side of hearty French bread is used to soak up all that delicious pan-sauce. For a thicker gravy, remove the roast and veggies from the pans, strain the sauce into a saucepan, and simmer over medium heat until slightly thickened.
