Chuck Steak Roast

4 Servings
3 hr 40 min

For an easy family dinner, chuck steak roast with vegetables comes to the rescue! It’s slow roasted, fall off the bone perfection. Chuck steak is an inexpensive cut of meat, making this meal a budget-friendly one as well!


It’s so easy to make too. Prep work is simple: chop the veggies; combine all of the sauce ingredients; and sear the steak for a few minutes. Then place everything into a roasting pan and slow roast for 3 to 3.5 hours. Once it’s in the oven, you can set it and forget it.


The sauce can be thickened with a cornstarch once everything comes out of the oven, but it’s not necessary. Serve with biscuits or some good crusty bread. A side of mashed potato would be great too, but you won’t need it!
