Print Recipe

This Korean Pot Roast is a flavorful and tender beef dish simmered in a savory-sweet sauce infused with classic Korean ingredients, perfect for a comforting dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece ginger, grated
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into chunks
  • 2 medium potatoes, cut into chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
  2. Sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add onions, garlic, and ginger; sauté until fragrant and softened, about 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in soy sauce, brown sugar, gochujang, sesame oil, and black pepper to form the sauce.
  5. Return the roast to the pot and add beef broth, carrots, and potatoes.
  6. Bring to a simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 2.5 to 3 hours until the beef is tender.
  7. Remove the roast and let it rest for a few minutes; slice or shred before serving.
  8. Serve topped with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds for garnish.

Notes

For extra depth of flavor, marinate the beef in the sauce mixture for 1 hour before cooking or serve with steamed rice and kimchi on the side.
