INGREDIENTS

- 2 lb beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp neutral oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 3/4 cup red wine
- 6 cups low-sodium beef stock
- 1 15-oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 bunch parsley
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 3 sprigs thyme
- 3 bay leaves
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed, husks removed
- 1 1/4 cups pearled barley
- 4 carrots, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
- 2 ribs celery, cut into ¼-inch pieces

INSTRUCTIONS

- Cut the chuck roast into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle the pieces with salt and pepper on all sides. Heat the oil in a large oven-safe Dutch oven or stockpot over medium to medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add half of the beef. Sear the beef on two sides until it is well browned and has a crust, 4-6 minutes per side. Once seared, set the beef aside on a plate. Do the same process to the remaining half of the beef.

- When the beef is seared, turn the heat down and allow the Dutch oven to cool slightly. Add the onion and cook over medium heat until it is soft and browned, 4-5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir into the onion until it deepens in color, 2-3 minutes. Add the red wine. Cook and stir the wine, bringing up all the brown bits on the Dutch oven, deglazing, until the wine is almost fully evaporated, 3-4 minutes.

- After the wine is evaporated, add the beef and any juices back to the Dutch oven. Pour in the beef stock and diced tomatoes with their juice. Separately, cut the stems off of the parsley. Using butcher's twine, tie together the parsley stems, rosemary, and thyme. Add the bundled herbs, bay leaves, and garlic cloves to the soup. Bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover. Simmer the soup until the meat is mostly tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

- After the beef has cooked, add the pearled barley, celery, and carrots. Simmer the soup until the barley is tender, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Once cooked, remove the bundled herbs and bay leaves. Chop the remaining parsley, add it to the soup, and serve.
