Ingredients

1 (4 to 5-pound) chuck roast, cut into 3-inch pieces

1 tablespoon kosher salt

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 sweet onion, thinly sliced

6 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

2 tablespoons gochujang paste

¼ cup brown sugar

2 cups beef stock

Cooked rice, for serving

Fresh cilantro, for serving

Kimchi, for serving

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F with a rack in the lower third of the oven.Pat the beef dry and season all over with the salt

Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat

Once the oil is glistening, working in batches, add the beef and cook until browned all over, about 10 minutes

Transfer to a plate.Reduce the heat to medium, add the onions to the Dutch oven and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes

Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute more

If the aromatics begin to brown too quickly, add ¼ cup of the beef stock and scrape up the browned bits

Stir in the gochujang paste, brown sugar and soy sauce until combined

Return the meat to the Dutch oven along with any collected juices

Add the remaining beef stock and bring to a simmer

Cook until the liquid is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes

Cover the pot and transfer it to the oven

Cook for 2 hours, or until the meat is very tender and shreds easily with a fork.Serve the pot roast family-style with rice, cilantro, and kimchi alongside.
