• Reduce oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and continue to cook the beef for 30 mins if you like it rare, 40 mins for medium and 1 hr for well done.
• Remove the beef and carrots from the oven, place onto warm plates or platters and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Let the beef rest for 30 mins while you turn up the oven to cook your Yorkshire puds and finish the potatoes.
• For the gravy, put the tin with all the meat juices and onions back onto the hob.

EASY, MOUTHWATERING ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Use a metal skewer to poke some holes throughout beef rib roast so marinade can penetrate the muscle.
• Whisk together beer, honey, soy sauce, Montreal steak seasoning, and garlic in a bowl; pour into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the rib roast, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in refrigerator at least 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Remove rib roast from the marinade. Discard remaining marinade. Place roast into a roasting pan with a rack.
• Cook the roast until hot and slightly pink in the center, about 2 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Remove from oven, cover with aluminum foil, and let rest on top of stove for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

EASY BEEF OVEN ROAST

Steps:

• Season roast. Place in shallow roasting pan. Insert oven-safe meat thermometer into center of roast avoiding fat or bone.
• Oven-Sear by placing uncovered roast in preheated 450°F (230°C) oven for 10 minutes.
• **Reduce heat to 275°F (140°C); cook uncovered to desired doneness, removing from oven when 5°F (3°C) below finished temperature. (Bone-in roast can take 30 to 45 minutes less.)
• Cover with foil and let stand for at least 15 minutes before carving into thin slices.
• **Not around to turn it down? Skip Step 2 and roast at a constant 275°F (140°C). This is especially good for less tender cuts and smaller roasts (less than 1 kg/2lb). Allow approximately 15% longer cook time.
• A rack in the pan promotes even cooking.
• Roast without a lid for best browning.
• Use a thermometer to know when your Oven Roast is done the way you like it.
• Let roast stand at least 15 minutes after cooking to let juices settle.
• Carve Oven roasts in thin slices across the grain.

EASY CROCK POT BEEF ROAST

Steps:

• Sprinkle your onion soup mix on top of your roast and your mushrooms on and around it.
• Salt and pepper to taste.

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.

PERFECT ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Remove the beef from the fridge 30 minutes before you want to cook it, to let it come up to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 240°C/475°F/ gas 9.
• Wash and roughly chop the vegetables - there's no need to peel them. Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled.
• Pile all the veg, garlic and herbs into the middle of a large roasting tray and drizzle with oil.
• Drizzle the beef with oil and season well with sea salt and black pepper, then rub all over the meat. Place the beef on top of the vegetables.
• Place the tray in the oven, then turn the heat down immediately to 200°C/400°F/gas 6 and cook for 1 hour for medium beef. If you prefer it medium-rare, take it out 5 to 10 minutes earlier. For well done, leave it in for another 10 to 15 minutes.
• If you're doing roast potatoes and veggies, this is the time to crack on with them - get them into the oven for the last 45 minutes of cooking.
• Baste the beef halfway through cooking and if the veg look dry, add a splash of water to the tray to stop them from burning.
• When the beef is cooked to your liking, take the tray out of the oven and transfer the beef to a board to rest for 15 minutes or so. Cover it with a layer of tin foil and a tea towel and leave aside while you make your gravy, horseradish sauce and Yorkshire puddings.

CLASSIC ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Salt the roast and let it come to room temp: The beef should be brought as close to room temperature as possible before you start to roast it, so that it cooks more evenly. Remove it from the refrigerator at least 1 hour, preferably 2 hours, before cooking. Open the wrapping, sprinkle all sides with salt, and wrap it up again.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F: (190°C). Move a rack to the center of the oven, and place the other one underneath.
• Roast to an internal temp of 135°F to 140°F: When juices start to drip from the roast, and it is browned on the outside, check the roast's internal temperature with a meat thermometer. Remove the roast from the oven when the internal temperature of the roast is 135°F to 140°F (for medium rare meat).

EASY ROAST BEEF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius (430 degrees Fahrenheit).
• Arrange the beef joint on a baking tray, drizzle with oil and season well with salt and pepper.
• Roast for 25 minutes, then lower the temperature to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for the remaining 50 minutes.
• Baste occasionally- if the cut of beef used if not very fatty, add half a cup of water to the tray to prevent the meat drying out.
• When it's one, remove from the oven, cover with kitchen foil, and leave to rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.

EASY ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a roasting pan with olive oil spray. Set aside.
• Rub the beef on all sides with the oil. Sprinkle with the Chili Powder. Using your fingertips, gently press the Chili Powder so it adheres to the beef. Transfer the beef to the roasting pan. Put the onion, carrots, and celery around the beef.
• In a small bowl, stir together the wine and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over the beef.
• Bake for 1 hour 30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the beef registers almost the desired doneness. If the beef begins to dry out during cooking, baste with additional wine. Don't use the drippings for basting. Leaving the pan juices in the pan, transfer the beef to a cutting board, retaining the pan juices. Let stand, lightly covered with aluminum foil, for 10 to 15 minutes to continue cooking. Thinly slice the beef. Arrange on a platter.
• Meanwhile, skim the fat from the pan juices or remove the juices with a bulb baster and discard the fat. Stir the salt into the pan juices. Spoon over the sliced beef.
• Cook's Tip on Beef Temperatures
• Use a meat thermometer or an instant-read thermometer to determine the internal temperature. To be safe, cook beef to at least 160°F. For well-done, cook to 170°F.
• Cook's Tip on Separating Fat from Pan Juices
• A gravy separator, which looks like a measuring cup with a spout coming from the bottom, makes it easy to remove the fat from pan juices. Pour all the pan juices into the separator. After the fat rises to the top, simply pour the fat-free juice out of the bottom until the fat layer falls to the level of the spout. Discard what remains in the separator.
