POT ROAST SLIDERS WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• For the pot roast and gravy: Bring the roast to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• Season the roast with the salt and pepper. Rub the entire roast with the garlic, tucking into the roast's nooks and crannies as you go.
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the roast until golden brown all over, about 4 minutes on each side. Pour in the beef broth. Layer the onion and pepper slices on top of the roast and bring the liquid to a boil. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the meat is fork-tender, 4 to 5 hours. Discard the onions and peppers. Remove the cooked roast to a serving platter. Let cool, then shred with two forks.
• Whisk the flour with 1/4 cup of warm water in a liquid measuring cup or small bowl until smooth. Heat the juices remaining in the pan over high heat until boiling. Slowly whisk in the flour mixture and cook over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Add 1 cup of gravy to the shredded and cooled meat. Mix until it resembles pulled pork and all the meat is thinly coated with the gravy.
• For the horseradish mayo: Combine the mayonnaise and horseradish in a small bowl and mix until combined.
• For the sliders: Add an even layer of horseradish mayo on the bottom of the slider buns. Add a layer of the pot roast to the slider buns and then top with the dill pickles.
• Reserve the remaining gravy and pot roast for another use.

PERFECT POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
• If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
• With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
• Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
• Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.
