Ingredients
  

For the Pot Roast
  • 3 lb beef chuck roast
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp ginger grated
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
For Serving
  • 1/4 cup green onions sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Equipment

  • Dutch oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned.
  4. Remove the roast from the Dutch oven and set aside. Add the chopped onion to the Dutch oven and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and black pepper.
  7. Return the roast to the Dutch oven. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the roast.
  8. Cover the Dutch oven and transfer it to the preheated oven. Cook for 3 to 4 hours, or until the roast is tender.
  9. Remove the roast from the Dutch oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  10. Serve the sliced pot roast with the sauce from the Dutch oven, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

You can add vegetables like carrots and potatoes to the Dutch oven during the last hour of cooking.
