Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C).

Heat a Dutch oven pot on medium-high on the stove and add olive oil.

Caramelize chopped onion in the olive oil, then remove from the pot.

Add carrots to the pot and sauté them in the olive oil.

Chop garlic while the carrots are sautéing, then add it to the pot with the roast later.

Rinse the beef roast, pat it dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.

Sear the beef roast in the pot to create a crispy layer on the outside.

Pour red wine into the pot to deglaze, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom.

Add the caramelized onions, sautéed carrots, fresh herbs, dried herbs, and garlic to the pot.

Fill the pot with homemade bone broth, covering the roast and vegetables.

Cover the pot and place it in the oven to roast for about 3 hours.

Check the meat for doneness; it should reach 145°F (63°C) and be tender and juicy.

If not ready to eat, set the pot to warm until serving.
