Ingredients
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder optional, carefully included to infuse the dish with a subtle and aromatic garlic flavor, enhancing the overall taste experience.
- 1.5 tablespoons butter softened, thoughtfully incorporated to provide a rich and luscious element, adding a velvety and smooth texture to the dish.
- Salt to taste, meticulously added to enhance the flavors and bring out the natural richness of the beef, creating a well-seasoned and savory dish.
- Black pepper to taste, skillfully sprinkled to provide a hint of spiciness and add depth to the overall flavor profile, complementing the beef beautifully.
- 1/2 lb beef cross-rib chuck roast carefully selected for its well-marbled and flavorful meat, ensuring a tender and succulent result when cooked.
- 1/2 cup beef broth plus 1/4 cup if needed, skillfully added to moisten and tenderize the meat, creating a flavorful and savory base for the dish. The additional 1/4 cup can be used if more liquid is needed during cooking to maintain the desired consistency.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season beef roast generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, mix together the butter and garlic powder until well combined. Rub the butter mixture over the beef roast evenly.
- Place the beef roast in a roasting pan or Dutch oven, then pour in 1 cup of beef broth. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
- Roast in preheated oven for 2 hours, or until the roast is tender. If needed, add an additional 1/2 cup of beef broth to keep it from drying out.
- Once done roasting, remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Make sure to use a good quality beef broth for maximum flavor.
- You can also add other herbs and spices such as rosemary, thyme, or paprika for added flavor.
- For extra tenderness, let the roast rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
- If you want a crispier crust on the outside of your roast, remove the lid or foil for the last 15 minutes of cooking.
