Place roast back in the dutch oven, or place roast in an oven-proof pan along with the stock and onion, and celery.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Roast, covered, for 2 to 3 hours or until beef starts to get very tender.
Place the extra vegetables around roast.

Using a slotted spoon, remove meat and vegetables to platter.
