Ingredients
  

  • 900 g beef shoulder or chuck roast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 unit onion, finely chopped
  • 2 units carrots, cut into chunks
  • 2 stalks celery sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 500 ml beef broth
  • 400 g crushed tomatoes 1 can
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • Wooden spoon
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. Sear the beef until golden brown on all sides.
  2. Remove the beef and add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Cook until the veggies are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  3. Return the beef to the pot and pour in the beef broth, crushed tomatoes, rosemary, and thyme. Stir gently to combine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 3 to 4 hours.
  4. Once the beef is fork-tender, remove it from the pot and shred into bite-sized pieces. Mix it back into the sauce for extra juiciness. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

This dish is ideal for special occasions, leftovers taste even better the next day, and can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months. For a richer sauce, consider adding a splash of red wine when building the sauce. Enjoy pairing it with pasta, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread!
