Pot Roast
- 3 pounds Beef Chuck Roast Trimmed of excess fat.
- 1 medium Onion Chopped finely.
- 1 cup Carrots Diced.
- 2 cups Low-Sodium Beef Broth
- 4 cloves Garlic Minced.
Twice Baked Potato Filling
- 1 cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese Shredded.
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter For creaminess.
- 1 cup Sour Cream For tanginess.
Seasoning
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water and pierce each potato several times with a fork. Bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
- In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, then sear it for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the roast to a slow cooker. In the same skillet, add chopped onions and carrots, sauté for 3-4 minutes, then add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Pour the sautéed vegetables over the roast in the slow cooker, add beef broth, cover, and cook on low for 6-8 hours until fork-tender.
- Once cooked, remove the roast and let it rest for 10 minutes before shredding. Reserve the cooking liquid.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Slice each baked potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a mixing bowl.
- Add shredded pot roast, butter, sour cream, half of the cheddar cheese, and salt and pepper to the bowl. Mix until creamy.
- Spoon the mixture back into the potato skins, sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese, and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
