Prep Time: 20 minutes (ready in 2 hours 20 minutes) - Yield: 6 servings
2 tablespoons oil
1 (3 to 4-pound) beef chuck roast, blade, or 7-bone roast
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 medium onions, quartered
4 celery, cut into pieces
1 bay leaf
2 beef bouillon cubes or 2 teaspoons beef-flavor instant
1 1/2 cups boiling water
6 medium potatoes, halved
6 medium carrots, cut into pieces
1/4 cup cold water
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Salt to taste
1. Heat oven to 325°F. In 5-quart Dutch oven or roasting pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add roast; cook 5 minutes on each side or until browned. Drain and discard drippings, if desired. Sprinkle pepper on both sides of roast.
2. Add 1 of the onions, 1 of the celery stalks and bay leaf to roast. Dissolve bouillon cubes in boiling water; reserve 3/4 cup. Pour remaining 3/4 cup of bouillon around roast. Bring to a boil. Cover; bake at 325°F. for 1 hour.
3. Add remaining vegetables; cover and bake an additional 1 to 1 1/4 hours or until roast and vegetables are tender.
4. To prepare gravy, place roast and vegetables on warm platter; cover loosely to keep warm. Measure drippings from Dutch oven. Skim off fat. Add reserved 3/4 cup bouillon to drippings to make 3 cups; return to Dutch oven.
5. In small jar with tight-fitting lid, combine cold water and flour; shake well to blend. Gradually stir into drippings. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Add salt to taste. Serve with roast and vegetables.
