Ingredients

Scale

1 Certified Angus Beef ® chuck roast (4 to 5 pounds), 1.5-inch to 2-inch thick

1–1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

1 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper

1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic

1 teaspoon dried minced onion

2 sprigs rosemary or thyme (optional)

2 teaspoons canola oil

Instructions

1. Prepare and Season Chuck Roast:

  • Season the chuck roast with salt, pepper, garlic, and onion. Place in a vacuum bag with a sprig of rosemary or thyme on both faces of the chuck roast; vacuum seal.

2. Sous Vide Cooking:

  • Place the vacuum-sealed roast into a preheated water bath set to 131°F (55°C) and circulate for 24 hours.

3. Preheat Grill:

  • Prepare a charcoal or gas grill and preheat to 450°F to 600°F (230°C to 300°C). Remove the roast from the bag, pat dry, and cover with canola oil.

4. Grill the Roast:

  • Grill on the first side for 90 seconds, rotate 90 degrees, and sear for 90 more seconds. Repeat grilling technique on the second side, ensuring each side develops a nice char and deep mahogany browning.

5. Rest and Serve:

  • Remove from the grill, cover with foil, and rest for 5 minutes before cutting into 1/4-inch slices.

Notes

  • For best results, use heavy-duty vacuum bags to prevent bones from piercing holes, or wrap bones in plastic wrap before placing in a bag.
  • Serve with grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
