Best Pot Roast in the Dutch Oven
There is nothing better than getting the family together for Sunday Supper! This recipe is my go-to time and time again because it is so easy to make and my family loves it so much.
Slow-cooked cast iron sirloin tip roast is juicy, fork-tender, and so flavorful. It cooks with tender carrots and onions in a tasty beef gravy made with red wine. Every bite is a dream come true!
This is a one-pot dinner recipe perfect for feeding the family or a hungry crowd. It’s hearty, easy to make, and just what you need when you’re looking for some comfort food.
I tried it! It came out excellent!!! So much flavor and meat so tender. I added potatoes and carrots. Made a gravy with juices .

Dutch Oven Sirloin Tip Roast FAQs
It is a large, heavy cooking pot with a lid that you can transfer between the stove and the oven. Many are made out of coated cast iron and are quite heavy. It is the best tool for slow cooking!
Out of all of the pots I use, my Dutch Oven has to be one of the ones I use the most! Cooking a cast iron Dutch Oven pot roast is amazing.
Not only can you use these pots on the stove-top, but you can also put them in the oven with no fuss. There are very few pots you can transfer from the stovetop to the oven out there, so I’m a big fan of Dutch oven sirloin tip roasts!
Dry red wine is the best, so use that if you can. If you’d rather not use red wine at all, you can use red wine vinegar or extra beef stock.
I find that red wine is perfect for deglazing your pan and cooking into gravy.
If you’re out of beef stock, you can use chicken stock instead.
Best Beef for Pot Roast
For this easy roast recipe, you will need a braising beef such as chuck roast, rump roast, sirloin tip roast, or English roast.
Sirloin tip roast is almost always a great choice, as it’s budget-friendly and so tender when you braise it. I love this inexpensive cut of beef for making roast beef recipes!
My second choice is almost always English roast in Dutch Oven recipes like this one. I also love Dutch Oven sirloin tip roast.
Pot Roast Seasoning
To create the seasoning for this recipe, you need just a few common spices. I also feature one of my favorite ingredients, Worcestershire sauce!
- thyme
- rosemary
- Worcestershire sauce
- salt
- pepper
How to Deglaze a Pan
- Transfer the beef to a cutting board.
- Add liquid (wine, stock, or water) to the hot pot or baking dish.
- Scrape and stir the browned bits from the pan over a moderate-high heat to melt all cooking residues into the liquid.
- The juices will make the most amazing beef gravy!
How to Make Beef Gravy from Drippings
- Place the pot back on the stove and bring the liquid to a boil.
- Leave the pot uncovered to reduce the liquid and intensify the flavor.
- For a thicker gravy, take ½ a Tbsp. of cornstarch and mix it with 2 Tbsp. of beef stock in a small cup.
- Pour it back into the liquid.
- Simmer for approximately 5 minutes to thicken.
How Long to Cook Pot Roast in a Dutch Oven
As a general rule of thumb, at 350°F, you’ll want to cook your Dutch Oven sirloin tip roast for 1 hour per pound of meat. A 2.5 lb cut of beef will take 2.5 hours, and so on.
I tend to cook mine a little longer to make it the most fork-tender. However, if you’re carving the roast to serve, it doesn’t need to be fall-apart tender!
If the beef isn’t as tender as you like, continue cooking until desired tenderness. 3 hours for a 2 lb. roast is perfect.
Dutch Oven Sirloin Tip Roast Recipe Tips
- If possible, use a heavy cast-iron Dutch oven with a lid. If you don’t have one, a good roasting pan will also work.
- Sear your meat first over high heat to start the browning process. This will seal in the juices and guarantee a juicy pot roast.
- Use a good beef stock and check the level of the liquid every hour. Add ½ cup of water if it’s reduced too much and drying out.
Roast Beef Side Dishes
- Delicious Creamy Mashed Potatoes
- Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes
- Green Bean Almondine are the perfect addition!
- Roasted carrots with Parmesan

The best recipe ever! Made homemade gravy in pot with juices and some of my potato water! Every bite of the roast, mashed potatoes, with the gravy was incredible! Went back to my recipe folder and deleted any other recipe I may have saved for beef roasts, as you will only ever need this one!
