Ingredients:

  1. 1 bottles - 12 oz. dark beer OR cola
  2. 1 - medium onion chopped
  3. 8 cloves - garlic minced
  4. 1 - lemon thinly sliced
  5. 1 cups - soy sauce
  6. 3 tablespoons - vegetable oil divided
  7. 3 1/2 pounds - boneless chuck roast trimmed
  8. 1 teaspoons - fresh coarsely ground pepper
  9. 8 - carrots diagonally sliced
  10. 7 - Yukon gold potatoes peeled and cut into eighths
  11. 2 - large onions cut into eighths
  12. 2 tablespoons - cornstarch

Directions:

1. Combine beer, onion, garlic, lemon and soy sauce with 2 tablespoons oil in a large zip-top plastic freezer bag. Add roast, turning to coat. Seal and chill for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours. Remove roast from marinade, reserving marinade. Sprinkle roast evenly with pepper.

2. Brown roast 4 minutes on each side in remaining one tablespoon hot oil in a large heavy-duty roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add reserved marinade, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of pan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and cover with heavy-duty aluminum foil.

3. Bake at 300° for 2-1/2 hours. Turn roast and stir in carrots, potatoes and onions. Bake 2 more hours or until roast and vegetables are tender. Transfer roast and vegetables to a serving platter. Skim fat from juices in roasting pan.

4. Whisk together cornstarch and 1/2 cup water in a small bowl until smooth. Whisk cornstarch mixture into juices in pan; cook over medium-high heat 5 minutes or until thickened, whisking to loosen particles.

5. Drizzle 1/2 cup gravy over roast. Serve remaining gravy with meat and vegetables.
