Italian pot roast ( Stracotto)

[timothy]

Started with a 4# chuck roast.
Seasoned with s&p and browned in the DO.
Removed and added the sofritto, onion, carrot, celery.
Pushed that aside and sauté a bunch of garlic and diced pancetta.
Added some tomato paste and fresh herbs and browned.
Deglazed with red wine and added some beef stock and a can of whole tomatoes pureed.
Into a 300 oven for 4 hrs.
Resting now, gonna shred and
serve it over pasta as my lady doesn't care for polenta.
Recipe here.

This Italian pot roast is the ultimate comfort food meal! The beef is slowly cooked until tender in a rich tomato-based braising liquid.

Looking great, Timothy! I just recently learned of this recipe and made it not too long ago. Consensus from the wife and kids was "Add this to the rotation!". Followed a similar recipe.
