Creating the Asian Pot Roast is straightforward when you follow these steps:

1. Prep the Ingredients: Start by cutting the vegetables and mincing the ginger and garlic to have everything ready to go.
2. Sear the Roast: Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, then brown it on all sides. This step adds flavor.
3. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, minced ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until well mixed.
4. Add the Roast: Place the browned roast back into the pot. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef.
5. Add Vegetables: Scatter the carrots, onions, and bell peppers around the roast in the pot.
6. Cooking: Cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Allow the pot roast to simmer for four hours. After 2 hours, check occasionally to ensure it doesn’t dry out; add water if necessary.
7. Check for Tenderness: After four hours, the beef should be tender and easily shred with a fork. If it’s not tender enough, allow it to cook for an additional 30 minutes.
8. Serve: Once ready, carefully remove the roast from the pot. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
9. Garnish: Serve the sliced pot roast with the cooked vegetables. Drizzle some sauce over the top and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.

Following these easy-to-understand steps, you will create an amazing Asian Pot Roast that is sure to impress everyone at the table.
