Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat the Oil: Begin by heating a generous splash of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until it shimmers.
  2. Sear the Beef: Add the beef chuck cubes in a single layer and sear for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
  3. Sauté the Aromatics: Add the chopped onions and minced garlic; sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions are translucent.
  4. Add the Vegetables: Incorporate carrots, potatoes, and mushrooms into the pot, stirring for 5 minutes to soften.
  5. Blend in the Seasonings: Mix in tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
  6. Pour in the Broth: Carefully pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pot. Bring to a boil.
  7. Simmer Gently: Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
  8. Final Taste Check: Check seasoning and doneness; thicken if necessary and let simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
