Gluten Free Rosemary-Garlic Pot Roast Soup
Rich, slow-simmered beef with sweet potato, parsnips, and carrots in a deeply savory bone broth — this is cold-weather comfort food at its absolute best. Every ingredient here is naturally free of gluten, so there's no need to swap anything out or hunt down specialty products; it just works as written. The real magic happens in two stages: first, a proper sear on the beef builds a caramelized crust that gives the broth incredible depth, and then a long, gentle simmer coaxes the chuck roast into fork-tender, shreddable perfection. Apple cider vinegar lifts all those browned bits from the bottom of the pot, while rosemary, thyme, turmeric, and ginger layer in warmth without any hidden fillers or starch-based thickeners to worry about. Using a quality bone broth — homemade or a trusted compliant brand — keeps the base clean and collagen-rich, which gives the soup that silky, almost velvety body you'd expect from something that cooked all day. A handful of fresh parsley stirred in at the end brightens the whole bowl and makes it feel just a little bit fancy. This is the kind of recipe you'll want on rotation all season long.

- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

Instructions
- 1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels and season all over with 1 tsp fine sea salt.
- 2
Heat the coconut oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, add the beef in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side, until a deep brown crust forms and the pieces release easily from the pot. Transfer the seared beef to a plate and repeat with the remaining batch.
