Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 lbs chuck roast
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional)
Instructions
- Pat chuck roast dry and season with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, sear the roast on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pot, sauté onion, garlic, and ginger for 3–4 minutes.
- Stir in gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar.
- Pour in beef broth and stir to deglaze the pan.
- Return roast to the pot and add carrots around it.
- Cover and braise at 325°F for 3 to 3.5 hours until fork-tender.
- Skim fat, drizzle with sesame oil, and garnish with green onions and cilantro.
- Slice or shred the roast and serve hot over rice, mashed potatoes, or in wraps.
Notes
For a crunchy, buttery side, pair with air-fryer garlic parmesan potatoes. The roast tastes even better the next day—store with sauce and reheat gently.
