Big bone-in chuck, Brown on both sides & remove.  Use cast iron (or LeCruset pot). Brown rough cut onions, carrots and celery. Add roast back. Pour in half & half beef stock and red wine (no..not sangria :-) ) Season of course with salt/pepper. Add bay leaves, cover and simmer on low or in a 300 degree oven for 2-3 hours. Then remove contents and make gravy, add back the roast, cover for 30 minutes and put on platter. Cover and let get happy then carve and serve with rice, mashed potatoes or wide noodles. Slice or shred roast.  Then slap your momma.

That's the basics. Feel free to innovate.
