3 Lb Boneless Chuck Roast In Oven Food

OVEN BAKED CHUCK ROAST RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300F and allow chuck roast to come to room temperature. Peel and chop carrots into sticks. Clean and cut each baby potato in half.
• Season chuck roast on all sides with the salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. When the oil is warm, sear the chuck roast on all sides until there is a golden brown crust - about 4 mins each side.
• Remove the chuck roast from the pan, drain any excess oil from the pan and reduce the heat to medium low. Mix beef broth, wine, and tomato paste in the pan scraping any brown bits off the bottom as you mix. Let this mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
• Arrange half of the carrots and potatoes in a layer in the bottom of a roasting pan. Place the roast on top and arrange the rest of the carrots and potatoes around it. Season with rosemary and thyme and pour the liquid from the pan over top.
• Cover the roasting pan with a lid and place in the oven to cook. Cook for an hour and a half then remove from the oven and spoon the liquid from the bottom of the pan over the roast for a minute. Cover the pan and return it to the oven.
• Cook for another hour and half until the roast has cooked for 3 hours total. Remove from the pan and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice and serve with the carrots and potatoes.
• Skim the excess fat off the juice from the pan and serve with the sliced roast.

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.

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.

BEEF POT ROAST

• Heat a heavy Dutch oven on top of the stove over medium high heat. Add oil, and sear meat in the center of the pan for 4 minutes. Turn meat over with tongs; sear all sides for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove meat from pan. Arrange onion, garlic, and 1 bay leaf in the bottom of the pan, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return meat to pan, place remaining bay leaf on top of meat, and cover.

DUTCH OVEN CHUCK POT ROAST

Steps:

• 1. Method: In a braising pan or large heavy enameled cast iron casserole, brown the roast on all sides in the oil until the outside is slightly charred and richly colored. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the remaining fat.
• 2. Salt and pepper the meat to taste, and sprinkle with an herb. Thyme is a favorite because it has a pungency that is most effective with beef, but you could use rosemary or summer savory, which would give an entirely different quality. Add the bay leaf, cinnamon, onions, garlic, parsley, and leek. Pour in the liquid of your choice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and either simmer on top of the stove over very low heat, allowing 30 to 35 minutes per pound, or cook in a 325°F oven, allowing 35 minutes a pound, about 3 hours, until the meat is quite tender. Add more liquid if needed.
• 3. Remove the meat to a hot platter to rest for about 15 minutes and skim the fat from the pan juices. If you want more gravy, strain the liquid, pour additional wine or beef stock into the pan and bring to a boil. Thicken the juices with little balls of butter and flour, kneaded together. Let it reduce until it lightly coats a spoon
