Aimee from Homemaker on a Budget serves up a grass-fed beef chuck roast with simple ingredients for a healthy dinner.

Baked Grass Fed Beef Chuck Roast Using Simple Ingredients

Grass fed beef has a richer flavor and is full of essential nutrients for living a healthy life. This beef chuck roast recipe is a simple baked roast that creates tender, flavorful shredded beef you can use throughout the week in meals like tacos, salads, burrito bowls, Asian bowls, quiche, and more.
Serving Size 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds bone-in grass-fed beef chuck roast
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 bulbs garlic, peeled
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1 Tbsp steak seasoning
  • 1 cup beef or chicken broth

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Slice the onion and peel the garlic, and lay them in a single layer in the bottom of a 9X13 glass baking dish.
  • Season the chuck roast on both sides with the steak seasoning.
  • In a large skillet, over medium heat, add oil or butter. Place the chuck roast into the skillet and brown on both sides.
  • Place the browned chuck roast on top of the onions and garlic.
  • Add the 1 cup of broth to the skillet and deglaze the pan. Use a metal spatula to get up any brown bits, then pour the broth around the chuck roast.
  • Cover with aluminum foil or a roasting lid and bake for 3 hours, or until tender and falling off the bone. ***Rule of thumb: Bake the chuck roast for 1 hour per pound.

Notes

Don't have beef or chicken broth? This often happens to me. I use Just Ingredients French Onion Soup Mix, which is made using bone broth. I'll whisk in a scoop of the powder into a cup of water. 
***This meat is a perfect base for any recipe, including tacos, Asian bowls, salads, French dips, loaded baked potatoes, Chipotle-style burritos, pizza topping, and quiche.
