Ingredients
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
3-3 1/2 pounds beef chuck roast, trimmed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1 cup red wine
1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, preferably San Marzano
5 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium turnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Chopped fresh basil for garnish
Directions
Combine salt, cinnamon, allspice, pepper and cloves in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over beef.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker.
Add onion and garlic to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add wine and tomatoes (with their juice); bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits and breaking up the tomatoes. Add the mixture to the slow cooker along with carrots and turnips.
Cover and cook on High for 4 hours or Low for 8 hours.
Remove the beef from the slow cooker and slice. Serve the beef with the sauce and vegetables, garnished with basil, if desired. How many pounds have you lost this month?
