Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Sprinkle salt and pepper all over chuck roast.
Heat oil in a heavy bottomed Dutch Oven. I like to use my Le Creuset.Add chuck roast and cook about 2 minutes a side to sear.
Add onion and garlic and cook 1 minute.
Pour bbq sauce on top of chuck roast, lifting it to let some go underneath.
Cover and place in oven and cook for 2 hours. Remove from oven, turn roast overn and return to oven for 1 hour. I like to cook it uncovered for the last 30 minutes to thicken the sauce.
Notes
If you want to make it spicy, either use a spicy bbq sauce or add half a teaspoon of cayenne pepper.Leftovers will keep for 4 to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator or can be frozen for up to 3 months.
