1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water

Preheat oven to 325°. Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Brown roast on all sides. Remove from pan.
Add celery, carrots and onion to the same pan; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until tender. Add turnips, sweet potato and garlic; cook 1 minute longer.
Add wine, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Stir in broth, vinegar and herbs. Return roast to pan; bring to a boil. Bake, covered, 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove beef and vegetables; keep warm. Discard herbs from cooking juices; skim fat. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened.

Recipe from Pillsbury

Pennsylvania Pot Pie

Ingredients

Chuck Roast

Potatoes- peeled and cut into large chunks

Carrots- peeled and cut into baby carrot size (baby carrots work with this recipe also)

Onions- peeled and sliced into larger size slices or chunks

(for the potatoes, carrots, and onions, size of family determines the amount you want there is no wrong amount)

Flour

Water

5 Garlic cloves chopped

Salt

Pepper

Directions

In a Large Pot on high heat, coat the bottom of the pot with oil.

Add garlic and brown

Take the Chuck Roast and pan sear each side

Turn heat down to medium and add enough water (and then some) to cover the roast. Cover and cook 5-6 hours depending on size. You will know when the roast is done when it literally falls apart. You may need to add more water throughout the cooking time to keep roast submerged in the water. You can add salt and pepper.

About 2 hours before the roast is done add potatoes, carrots, and onions.

About 30 minutes before everything is done you will make the “noodles”

Using a bowl, mix 1 cup of flour and 1 cup of the water from the pot. The consistency will be thick and sticky.

You can roll out the dough and cut into strips or you can flatten using your hands and drop the noodles into the pot. Allow to cook at least 15 minutes. (I usually double the noodles because my family enjoys them).

Serve with French Bread and enjoy!
