Equipment

  • cutting board
  • chef's knife
  • dutch oven or large pot
  • tongs
  • spatula
  • measuring spoons
  • measuring cups
  • soup bowls
  • ladle

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1-1½ lb chuck roast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
  • 1 med yellow onion, diced
  • 5-6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2-3 celery ribs, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 3 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 cup beer
  • 6-7 cups beef broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 3-4 yukon gold potatoes, diced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 8 oz green beans, cut into bite-sized pieces

Instructions

  • Season the chuck roast pieces with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.
  • Sear the beef in avocado oil on medium high-heat until color is developed and a fond appears on the bottom of the dutch oven.
  • Remove the beef and set it aside. Add the tomato paste, stirring constantly until it turns a deep brick red. Deglaze the pot with the beer and beef broth, scraping the bits up off of the bottom of the pot.
  • Return the beef to the pot along with the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Toss in the bay leaves and dried thyme leaves. Bring the soup to a simmer and let it cook, covered, for about an hour and half or until the beef starts to become tender.
  • Once the beef is showing signs of tenderness, taste the broth and add salt and pepper if needed.
  • To finish, add the potatoes, mushrooms, and green beans, and continue to simmer, uncovered, until these all become tender - about 20 minutes.
