Tuscan Pot Roast

by Pino Luongo

Peanut Free

Pot roast is common in many cuisines, but of course, the Italian version brings a certain rustic charm. Here, beef brisket mingles with a mix of flavorful veggies, like shiitake mushrooms, slowly braised in a herb-packed broth of red wine and crushed tomatoes. Three hours in the oven, and the liquid reduces to a rich sauce while the meat falls-apart tender. It’s served with honey-roasted Brussels sprouts, and Chef Pino suggests keeping bread close by, too—best for “bread spooning.”
