Octoberfest Roast

Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you need to bring this Octoberfest Roast to life:

  • 3 to 4 lbs of beef roast (like a chuck roast)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 cups carrots, cut into chunks
  • 3 cups potatoes, cut into chunks

Instructions to Get Cooking

Now let’s get cookin’! Follow these simple steps to whip up a roast that’s beyond delicious:

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large dutch oven or heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once it’s nice and hot, sear the beef roast on all sides until it’s brown and caramelized. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side.
  3. Remove the roast and set it aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onions and cook until they’re soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Add in the beef broth, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and rosemary. Stir well to combine all those glorious flavors.
  5. Return the beef roast to the pot, then add the carrots and potatoes around the roast. Season everything with salt and pepper.
  6. Cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Let it roast for about 3-4 hours, or until the beef is tender and falls apart easily with a fork.
  7. Once it’s done, take it out of the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve it up with the veggies and some of that delicious gravy. Enjoy!

There you have it! A scrumptious Octoberfest Roast that’ll keep you and your loved ones warm and satisfied. Perfect for a family dinner or gathering with friends, this recipe has everything you need for a special fall meal!
