Cut the tops off the celery and chop it into 1 to 1.5 inch pieces.

Peel and quarter the yellow onion and add it to the mix.

Sear the chuck roast in a skillet with olive oil until browned on all sides.

Remove the roast from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the quartered yellow onions as a base.

In a saucepan, heat beef broth until it shimmers, then add a tablespoon of better than bouillon roasted beef.

Place the roast on top of the onions in the skillet and pour the beef broth around it, ensuring the roast is not completely submerged.

Preheat the oven to 250°F (121°C).

Add thyme and rosemary on top of the roast before placing it in the oven.

Cover the skillet with a lid or foil and bake in the oven until the meat is tender, checking occasionally.
