1. **Preheat the Oven:**
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
2. **Season and Sear the Meat:**
– Generously season the chuck roast with salt and pepper on all sides.
– Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
– Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the roast and set aside.
3. **Sauté the Aromatics:**
– In the same Dutch oven, add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté until the onion is softened, about 3-4 minutes.
4. **Deglaze and Add Liquid:**
– Add the red wine (if using) to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
– Stir in the beef broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce.
5. **Add Vegetables and Herbs:**
– Return the seared roast to the pot.
– Add the chopped carrots, celery, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.

7. **Serve:**
– Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
– Slice or shred the roast and arrange it on a serving platter.
– Spoon the vegetables and sauce over the top.
– Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
