Instructions
1
Begin by pricking the chuck roast all over with a fork to allow flavors to penetrate.
2
Generously rub the high cliff seasoning all over the surface of the roast, ensuring even coverage.
3
Heat a cast iron griddle skillet over the campfire. Once hot, sear the top and bottom of the roast for 4-5 minutes on each side, forming beautiful grill marks.
4
In a separate pot, combine the beef broth and water. Pour half of this mixture into the cast iron skillet with the roast.
5
Cover the skillet with a lid or foil and set the temperature to around 225°F (this may require positioning it further from the heat source to maintain low temperatures).
6
Cook the roast for 5 hours, turning it 2 to 4 times throughout the cooking process to develop more grill marks and ensure even cooking.
7
Using a meat thermometer, check for doneness. For rare, remove the roast at an internal temperature of 130°F and wrap it in foil, allowing it to rest for 10 minutes. For medium, remove it at 140°F.
8
While the roast rests, add chopped carrots, celery, and potatoes to the remaining broth mixture in the skillet, cooking them until tender.
9
Serve the roast sliced alongside the tender vegetables for a hearty and satisfying meal.
