2bleus Perfect Roast Beef Food

PERFECT POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
• If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
• With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
• Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
• Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

BEST ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C), and heat a large thick-bottomed roasting tray on the stovetop.
• Rub the beef generously with salt, then add a little olive oil to the tray and lightly color the meat for a couple of minutes on all sides.
• Lay the onions and bulbs of garlic in the tray with the beef on top of them, then cook in the pre-heated oven for a total of 1 1/2 hours.
• While the beef is roasting, parboil your potatoes in salted boiling water for around 10 minutes and drain in a colander. Toss about to chuff them up, this will make them really crispy.
• After 30 minutes, take the tray out and toss in your potatoes and rosemary. With a garlic press or grater, squeeze or grate the cloves of garlic and ginger over everything in the tray.
• Shake the tray and whack it back in the oven for the final hour. Remove the potatoes to a dish to keep warm, place the beef on a plate, covered with foil, to rest, and get your greens and Yorkshire puddings on.
• Remove most of the fat from your roasting tray and you should be left with caramelized onions and sticky beef goodness.
• Add 1 teaspoon of flour to the tray and mash everything together. Heat the tray on the stovetop and when hot, add the red wine. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes, until your gravy is really tasty and coats back of a spoon. Add any juice from the beef and feel free to add some water or stock to thin the gravy if you like.
• Pour through a coarse sieve and push it through with a spoon, pushing it through with a spoon, and serve in a warmed gravy jug. Serve with Yorkshire puddings.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Mix the batter ingredients together. Let rest for 10 minutes
• Preheat a Yorkshire pudding tray or muffin tin with 1/2-inch (1 centimeter) of oil in each section. After the 10 minutes divide the batter into the tray. Cook for around 15 to 20 minutes until crisp and puffy, don't open the oven door before then or they won't rise.

• Roast the filet for 30 minutes exactly for medium-rare (25 minutes for rare and 35 minutes for medium). Remove the pan from the oven, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow the beef to rest on the pan for 10 minutes. Slice and serve hot or warm.

PERFECT BONELESS BEEF ROASTS

Steps:

• NOTE: The success of this recipe will depend upon how accurate the temperature of your oven is and how will it retains heat. Adjust cooking time +/- according to your individual oven.
• IMPORTANT: Determine the EXACT weight of the roast from the meat wrapper. Weight will determine how long to cook the roast. If you have a probe meat thermometer with an alarm, I recommend using it.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Cut all visible fat from the outside of the meat. Rub the entire outside of the roast with salt, pepper, or seasonings of your choice, such as thyme, garlic powder, etc. (If using a probe thermometer insert it into center of the meat. Set the temperature to your desired degree of doneness and set the alarm.).
• Place roast in roasting pan and bake according to the following Cooking Chart:.
• RARE - 3 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE/RARE - 3 1/4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE - 3 1/2 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM - 4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM WELL - 4 1/2 minutes per pound.
• WELL DONE - not recommended with this method.
• Set your oven timer for the cooking time calculated from the Cooking Chart above.
• When cook time is completed, TURN THE OVEN OFF! DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR AT LEAST 1-1/2 HOURS or until the probe alarm signals desired temperature has been reached. After removing roast from oven, tent with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• To reserve meat juices, slice rare/medium rare roasts on a platter where juices can collect. Pour juices into roasting pan, scraping loose any pan drippings, and pour au jus over the roast.
• OPTIONAL ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS: Slice mushrooms and onions. In frying pan coated with non-stick cooking spray, saute mushrooms and onions until limp and tender. Add 2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and set aside.
• FOR GRAVY: For each cup of au jus (beef liquid), make a slurry by stirring 1-1/2 to 2 tsp of cornstarch into 1 tbs water. Bring au jus to a slow boil (adding 1 cup beef broth, cooked mushrooms and onions w/vinegar if using optional ingredients); stirring constantly. Gradually add the slurry to the boiling au jus. Cook on medium, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens - about 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve.
