Preparation
- Step 1
Place the beef and the wine in a bowl that will hold them comfortably. Place the mushrooms in a 1-cup measuring cup, fill the cup with boiling water, and allow to steep 10 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to the bowl with the meat, and strain the mushroom liquid into bowl. Stir in the soy sauce. Cover and marinate at room temperature 2 to 3 hours.
- Step 2
Heat oven to 300 degrees. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat it dry on paper towels. Warm the oil in a 4-quart casserole on medium-high heat. Lightly brown the meat. Remove and lower the heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic and sauté until soft. Add the thyme, the marinade and the mushrooms and cook on high 8 to 10 minutes, until reduced by about half. Return the meat to the pan, cover and bake about 2½ hours, until fork-tender.
- Step 3
Stir in the vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Remove the thyme. Cut the meat in thick slices and arrange on a platter with the mushrooms. Spoon on the sauce or serve it in a separate bowl.

I've used dried shiitake mushrooms, half the recipe and worked out beautifully. Accompanied with sliced tomatoes, radishes and red onion (always good with beef) in balsamic/ lemon vinaigrette and was very happy. Had toasted baguette for the starch needed. May use polenta next time.
This turned out really well, with a minimum amount of effort. I used fresh shiitakes, so I skipped that step, but did everything else as per the recipe with a trip tip roast. We had it over egg noodles and it was a nice, comfortable Sunday dinner.
This was a very nice roast. I used a chuck roast and for the wine—some Chianti we had leftover from the night before. Made it just as described. The sauce is not too sweet but rich and rewarding. Will definitely be making this again. Really great comfort food, but also could see serving this up for dinner with friends.
