- 5 lb. beef chuck roast
- 1 Tbsp. smoked paprika

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Heat olive oil in heavy pan over medium high heat. Sprinkle roast with paprika and brown, about 15 minutes total. Place in Dutch oven and add bell peppers, onions, carrot, and garlic.In the same skillet used to brown roast, add wine, vinegar, sugar, and tomato sauce, scraping to loosen any brown bits. Pour over the meat and vegetables, add pepper, and cover. Bake in a 300 degree oven for 4-5 hours.
When the meat is tender, remove and cover it with foil to keep warm. Remove vegetables from the pan with a slotted spoon and puree in a food processor.

Slice the roast and spoon the gravy over it. Serves 8-10
