How to Make Oven-Made Beef Stew:
Step 1:
Fire up your pot by preheating it and dive into the beef chuck roast, slicing it into pieces about 1 to 1 1/2 inches. Sprinkle those chunks with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 2:
Time to give that beef a beautiful tan! In batches, brown the beef. Once the pot is sizzling hot, pour in some oil and lay out those beef pieces with a bit of space between them. Let them get that golden brown glow on all sides, then whisk them away to a plate.
Step 3:
Throw in the chopped onion and celery into the pot, giving them a sprinkle of salt for good measure. Sauté until they're feeling translucent and friendly. Toss in the garlic with a splash of oil, sauté a bit more, and then bring in the tomato paste – a solid 2 tablespoons of it. Cook this flavor party for about a minute.
Step 4:
Welcome back the beef and sprinkle in 6 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Stir it up until everything's playing nicely, and let it cook for a smooth 2 minutes. Get ready for that oven magic!

Step 5:
Add dry red wine and deglaze the pot. Next, add the beef broth, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Place the lid and bring it to a boil.
Step 6:
Turn the heat off and place in a 325F preheated oven. Cook for an hour and a half.
Step 7:
While the pot is in the oven, prepare your potatoes and carrots. After 1.5 hours, take it from the oven and remove the aromatics. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Add the chunks of carrots and potatoes. Stir, cover with the lid, and place back in the oven for 1.5 hours.
