Instructions

In a Dutch oven or deep oven-proof skillet, cook the bacon until crispy, then remove it to a plate lined with paper towels.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Season both sides of the chuck roast with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. Brown the roast in the bacon grease, then plate it.
Add the onions and carrots to the remaining grease and cook until the onions soften. Reduce the heat, add the garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Plate the vegetables and remove excess grease before adding 1 tablespoon butter to cook the mushrooms until browned, then plate them.
Deglaze the pot with the wine, stirring to loosen the browned bits. Add the beef broth, tomato paste, bay leaves, thyme, and browned chuck roast to the pot. Cover and place in the oven for 1 hour.
Melt the butter and whisk in the flour, then slowly add to the pot with the beef over low heat until slightly thickened, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in the bacon, onions, carrots, and mushrooms. Place back in the oven to cook for another hour. Remove bay leaves and thyme stems before serving.
