3 pound Trimmed Chuck Roast

3 Slices of bacon I used 4 (I love bacon)

2 Tbsp Rosemary

3 Tbsp finely chopped Parsley

1 tsp sage

3 Cloves Garlic Minced

1 tsp paprika

Salt and Pepper

Olive Oil ( I used bacon grease)

2 carrots, cut into 1/4 dice

1 Onion, finely sliced

2 bay leaves

2 celery ribs

1 bottle Merlot or Barolo

Cook Bacon until crisp, sauté onion until soft. ( I used the bacon grease)

Brown meat in olive oil ( I used bacon grease mainly because I was nearly out of olive oil and I forgot more at the store, story of my life)

Add wine to deglaze the pan, what you want to do is scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon until you get all the brown bits stuck on the bottom up.

Add meat, onions and the rest of the ingredients to the Dutch oven (if you don’t have a Dutch oven you can use any old pan or baking dish)

Bake at 300 for approximately 4 hours.

If you don’t already have a Dutch oven they are available on amazon
