Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 (3 pound) beef pot roast

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 5 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 pound carrots, cut into chunks

  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 1 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 2 cups beef stock

  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle dark beer

  • 1 bay leaf

  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven. Brown pot roast on all sides in hot oil; remove from pan and set aside.

  3. Stir onion and garlic into hot oil and cook until onions are just softened and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add carrots, mushrooms, and potatoes to the pot; cook and stir until they begin to color, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix flour into vegetables; stir continuously for 1 minute. Add beef stock and beer; bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Stir in bay leaf, thyme, brown sugar, mustard, tomato paste, salt, and pepper; place pot roast back in the pot and cover with a lid.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until beef and vegetables are completely tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
