Savory Red Wine Braised Beef

This beef braised in red wine is a hearty and comforting dish that is great for a cold night. The slow cooking in the Avanti 19 Bottle French Door Wine and Beverage Cooler gives the beef rich flavors from the red wine and aromatics, making the meat tender and juicy.

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs beef chuck roast
• 1 bottle 750 ml red wine such as Cabernet Sauvignon
• 2 cups beef broth
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 onions, sliced
• 4 carrots, peeled and chopped
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

Warm up the Avanti 19 Bottle French Door Wine and Drink Cooler to 190F 375C

Add a lot of salt and pepper to the beef chuck roast

In a big Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat

For about three to four minutes on each side, sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until it turns brown

Take it out and set it aside

You can put garlic, onions, carrots, and celery in the same pot

It will take about 5 minutes of cooking until the vegetables are soft

Fill the pot with red wine and beef broth

Scrape the bottom of the pot to get rid of any browned bits

Put the rosemary and thyme sprigs back into the pot with the seared beef chuck roast

Bring the liquid to a simmer, then cover it and put it in the Avanti 19 Bottle French Door Wine and Beverage Cooler that has already been heated

Let the beef cook for two to three hours, or until it is tender when pierced with a fork

After the beef is done, take it out of the pot and let it rest for 10 minutes

Then, cut it into slices

Remove the solids from the braising liquid by straining it

Put the beef slices on a plate and pour the sauce through a strainer over them
