Ingredients
4 to 5 pound chuck roast
2 Tbs vegetable oil
2 onions thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
1 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbs ground ginger
2 Tbs sugar
1 Tbs cider vinegar
1 28oz can packed tomatoes with juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown chuck roast on all sides in vegetable oil, about 15 minutes in a cast iron dutch oven. Cover roast with all other ingredients. Place dutch oven in preheated oven and roast for about 3 hours. Roast will be very tender and juicy. (If you don’t have a cast iron dutch oven you may use any deep, covered roasting pan.)
