FAQ

Can I use a different cut of beef?
Yes, brisket or short ribs also work well for slow-cooked pot roast.

Can this be made in the oven?
Absolutely! Cover the pot and bake at 325°F (160°C) for 3–3.5 hours.

How do I make the vegetables more flavorful?
Sauté them lightly with the onions and garlic before adding to the broth, or roast separately for deeper caramelization.
