🥩 Slow-Roasted Garlic Herb Beef Roast 🌿 This Slow-Roasted Garlic Herb Beef Roast is incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with rich, savory flavor. Coated in a buttery garlic-herb seasoning and slow-roasted until fork-tender, it's finished with a rich homemade pan gravy that's perfect for holidays, Sunday dinners, or any special family meal. Ingredients For the Roast • 4–5 lb beef chuck roast or rump roast • 2 tbsp olive oil • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened • 8 garlic cloves, minced • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard • 2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped • 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves • 1 tsp smoked paprika • 1 tsp onion powder • 1 tsp garlic powder • 2 tsp kosher salt • 1 tsp black pepper For the Roasting Pan • 1 large onion, sliced • 2 cups beef broth • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 1 tbsp soy sauce • 2 bay leaves For the Homemade Gravy • Pan drippings • 1 tbsp cornstarch • 2 tbsp cold water • 1 tbsp butter (optional) Instructions 1. Preheat the oven to **300°F (150°C)**. 2. Pat the roast dry with paper towels. 3. In a small bowl, combine the butter, olive oil, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, rosemary, thyme, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. 4. Rub the mixture generously over every side of the roast. 5. Arrange the sliced onions in the bottom of a roasting pan and place the beef on top. 6. Pour the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce around the roast. Add the bay leaves. 7. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. 8. Roast for **3½–4½ hours**, or until the beef is extremely tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. 9. Remove the foil during the last 20 minutes to develop a beautifully browned crust. 10. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let it rest for 15 minutes. 11. Pour the pan juices into a saucepan. Mix the cornstarch with cold water and whisk it into the juices. Simmer until thickened into a rich gravy. Stir in the butter for extra richness if desired. 12. Slice or shred the roast and drizzle generously with the homemade gravy before serving. Serving Suggestions Serve with creamy mashed potatoes, roasted carrots, buttered green beans, Yorkshire pudding, roasted Brussels sprouts, or warm crusty bread. Storage Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently with the gravy to keep the meat juicy.
