Print Recipe

A low-carb, keto-friendly pot roast recipe using radishes instead of potatoes, slow-cooked to tender perfection with savory herbs and a splash of balsamic vinegar.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 pound radishes, halved or quartered
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast for 4-5 minutes per side until a deep golden crust forms.
  3. Slice the onion, mince the garlic, and halve or quarter the radishes depending on size.
  4. Place the sliced onion and minced garlic at the bottom of the crockpot. Add the seared roast on top, then nestle the radishes around it.
  5. Tuck fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs around the roast. Pour in beef broth and balsamic vinegar, ensuring the liquid comes about halfway up the roast.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until the meat is fork-tender and radishes are soft but not mushy.
  7. Check tenderness with a fork; if needed, cook another hour. Remove roast and radishes carefully.
  8. Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Spoon some cooking liquid over when serving for extra moisture.

Notes

Do not skip searing the roast as it adds significant flavor and texture. Avoid lifting the crockpot lid during cooking to maintain temperature. For thicker sauce, reduce cooking liquid in a pan after cooking. Fresh herbs are preferred but dried can be used in smaller amounts. Radishes can be substituted with turnips or other low-carb root vegetables.
