Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lbs chuck roast
  • 3 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chuck roast by patting it dry and seasoning generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, sear the roast on all sides until browned (about 5–7 minutes). Remove and set aside.
  3. Sauté onion, garlic, and ginger in the same pot for about 3–4 minutes.
  4. Add gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar to create the sauce. Pour in beef broth and deglaze the pan.
  5. Return the seared roast to the pot with carrot chunks around it. Cover and braise at 325°F for about 3 to 3.5 hours until fork-tender.
  6. Skim excess fat from the top before serving. Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with green onions.
