Chuck roast is one of the most inexpensive cuts of beef, but braise it low and slow and it literally melts in your mouth and is so tender.

This is what makes Angus chuck roast the best meat for pot roast . They're budget-friendly and perfectly sized for feeding larger families with leftovers to spare.

Chuck Roast Recipe FAQs

What is chuck roast?

It's a cut from the beef shoulder, neck, and upper arm area of the cow. Other names for chuck roast include chuck eye, chuck roll, and even just pot roast.

What is the difference between chuck roast vs. shoulder roast?

They both come from the same area, but the beef shoulder cut is leaner than chuck. It's better for carving into slices. Only chuck beef will give you the "pulled" texture of this dish.

What is the best cut of beef for slow cooking?

Chuck Roast– so, so tender, shreds apart and melts in your mouth.
Bottom round or top round beef – leaner cut and good to use if you want to slice your beef.
Beef Brisket – a fattier choice that gets very tender, but can still be sliced for serving. Try our Easy Brisket Recipe (slow cooker or Instant Pot).

Pot Roast Seasoning

Pot roast seasoning is best kept simple. All you need is salt and pepper! Pat the beef dry and give it a generous seasoning on all sides.

You can add rosemary or thyme, but I'm a big believer that keeping it simple is best.

How to Cook a Chuck Roast

This dish is perfect over mashed potatoes. The delicious beef gravy seeping into creamy mashed potatoes is a beautiful thing. My family won't have it served any other way!

Beef Chuck Roast Internal Temperature

Your pot roast should reach an internal temperature of at least 195°. I recommend cooking the beef until it is fall-apart tender.

How long to cook chuck roast in the oven at 350˚F: Cook a 4 lb. cut of beef low and slow for over 4 hours. This gives it plenty of time to soak in all the wonderful flavors and become completely moist and fork-tender.

Cook it for up to 6 hours for an even more tender dinner. This is how to slow cook a roast in the oven so it falls apart!

Sunday Pot Roast Vegetables

You can add a whole variety of different veggies to this recipe! I like to add:

• Potatoes
• Onions (white or yellow work best)
• Carrots
• Celery

Not only do the vegetables taste amazing, but it's a great way to make your side dishes at the same time as the main course. One-pot meals are so convenient.

If you want to elevate your dining experience, this beef tenderloin recipe is absolutely amazing!

• 4 lb boneless beef chuck roast
• 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 large yellow onion peeled and cut into large wedges
• 2 cloves garlic peeled or 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
• 6 carrots whole
• 2 celery stalks cut into large pieces
• 4 potatoes cut into large pieces
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary or 2 teaspoons of dried rosemary
• 2 bay leaves
• 6 ounce tomato paste
• 1 cup red wine
• 2 cups beef stock
• Salt and pepper to taste

• Preheat oven to 350˚F. Season the beef on all sides with salt and pepper.

  

• In a large Dutch oven, place the butter and vegetable oil over medium high heat.

  Once hot and the butter is melted, add the seasoned beef and sear until golden brown on all sides. Remove to a plate and set aside.

  

• Toss together the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, potatoes, rosemary in the pan. Allow to cook, stirring occasionally, until browned.

  Stir in the tomato paste and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.

• Place the seared beef back in the pan and top with the beef stock and add bay leaves.

  

• Cover and transfer to the preheated oven. Cook until the beef is tender and shreds easily, about 5-6 hours.

  Season with more salt and pepper if needed. Remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve hot with desired sides.

  

We love using whole carrots so they don't get mushy. Do not use carrot slices as they will cook for too long and get super mushy.

While we love all potatoes, yukon gold or russet potatoes, are our favorite to all to our beef chuck roast as they are hearty enough to cook along with the beef without getting mushy.

Make sure to sear the beef on all sides. This will ensure a juicy pot roast.
