Bobby Flay's Pot Roast Recipe

When it comes to pot roast, Bobby Flay knows exactly how to make it unforgettable.
The braising liquid is where all the magic happens. I mix beef broth, a touch of red wine, and tomato paste for a bold, balanced result.
Another must-do? Toss in fresh herbs like thyme and rosemary. As the roast simmers, they infuse everything with an earthy aroma.
I like to add baby potatoes and pearl onions—they cook up tender but never break apart, giving each bite variety and texture.
