Equipment

  • 1 Dutch oven (For even braising)
  • 1 Whisk (For mixing sauce)
  • 1 Tongs (To flip roast)

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil - for searing
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup brown sugar - packed
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic - minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger - grated
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 3 large carrots - thickly sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion - diced
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang - Korean chili paste

Instructions 

  • Heat oil in a heavy pot and sear the beef until a dark brown crust forms on all sides.
  • Whisk the soy sauce, sugar, oils, and spices in a bowl to create the savory braising liquid.
  • Add vegetables and the liquid to the pot, ensuring the meat is partially submerged for even cooking.
  • Cover and braise at 325°F for three hours until the meat is tender and pulls apart easily.
  • Serve large chunks of beef over white rice topped with sauce, green onions, and fresh cilantro.

Notes

Sear the beef thoroughly before braising to lock in flavor. If the sauce is too thin, reduce it on the stovetop for 10 minutes after cooking.
