Chuck roast is a large, boneless cut of beef that comes from between the ribs and backbone. This cut contains a mix of tender and somewhat tough muscles, which makes it quite inexpensive. Marinating it in olive oil and our signature Mediterranean Spice Blend both tenderizes and flavors the meat, and the slow cooking keeps it from becoming dry. Let time – and a meat thermometer – do most of the job for this easy yet effective Sunday lunch whose leftover are also perfect for day-after sandwiches.
INGREDIENTS
Chuck roast, boneless
Olive oil
Mediterranean Spice Blend
DIRECTIONS
Place the roast in a gallon-size zip-lock bag, add olive oil to coat, and dust with our Mediterranean Spice Blend. Get as much air out of the bag as possible. Place in refrigerator for 36 to 48 hours. Remove from bag and place in a baking dish. Roast slowly in oven at 300 degrees with a meat thermometer inserted into the middle of the roast until the thermometer registers 140 to 145 degrees for rare, 150 to 155 for medium. Remove from oven and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice thin and serve. Tender and tasty!
