Prep time: 20 min. Cook time: 5 hours Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients:
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) Italian stewed tomatoes, undrained
1 boneless beef chuck roast (2 to 3 pounds)
2 teaspoons pepper
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 celery rib, chopped
1/2 cup beef broth
1/2 cup ketchup
1 medium green pepper, halved and sliced
4 teaspoons prepared mustard
3 tablespoons corn-starch
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup cold water
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 large onion, halved and sliced
Directions:
Combine the first ten ingredients. In a 5-quart slow cooker, combine the onion, green pepper, and celery; place the roast on top. Pour the tomato sauce over the roast. Cook on low for 5-6 hours, covered, until meat is tender.
Remove the roast from the pan. Reserving the vegetables, strain the cooking juices. Skim the fat from the juices and transfer to a small saucepan. Stir together corn-starch and water until smooth, then add to the cooking juices. Bring to a boil, then cook and stir for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. With gravy, serve the roast and vegetables.

The shoulder area of the steer, as well as pieces of the neck, ribs, and upper arm, are used to make chuck roast. It comes from a large section of the animal and is usually a cheap cut of meat.

3. What is the best way to tenderize chuck roast?

Chuck roast should be tenderized with a process called “raisining”. A couple of quick steps will have the chuck roast ready to be used in a variety of recipes.

First, cut the chuck into cubes. Then, sprinkle with coarse sea salt and pepper and toss to coat. Finally, place the seasoned beef on a large piece of waxed paper or parchment paper and roll it up into one big log about 1 inch thick. This can be done in advance, with the chuck wrapped in plastic and stored in the refrigerator.
