Onion Braised Beef Roast Food

BEEF ROAST AND ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place the beef, fat-side up, onto a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Season the beef with half the black pepper.
• Roast for 1 1/2 hours for medium-rare or until desired doneness. Remove the beef from the pan. Let the beef stand for 15 minutes before slicing.
• Add the oil to the roasting pan and heat over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, parsley and remaining black pepper to the pan. Cook and stir until the onion is tender-crisp, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Stir the stock and flour in a large bowl until smooth. Add the stock mixture to the pan. Cook and stir until the mixture boils and thickens. Serve the gravy with the beef.

Can be chilled for up to 3 days. To freeze, cool and store in freezer bags. Thaw and reheat in a pan. Serve scattered with parsley.

BRAISED BEEF RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the beef into large chunks.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Brown the beef chunks. Then remove them and set aside.
• Cook the onions in the same skillet until they are fully cooked (or translucent).
• In a Dutch oven pot, begin layering the ingredients in the following order; 1/2 browned beef chunks, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, then half the sautéed onion and half the garlic (pressed).
• Repeat step 4 with the remaining beef chunks.
• Add the red wine and water to the meat and place the lid on top. Place the pot onto the cooktop and bring it to a boil. Place the pot into the oven for 1 1/2 -2 hours at 360 Fahrenheit. Cook until the meat is fully cooked through.

FRENCH BRAISED POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 225˚F. Pat meat dry with paper towels. Season meat on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or some other oven-safe pot with a cover. Once hot, add seasoned roast and sear each side well, until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once the meat is fully browned, transfer it from the pan to a platter.
• Add chopped celery, onion, mushrooms, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the pan. Place roast on top of the vegetables.
• Pour 1/2 cup red wine and tomatoes on top. Cover and roast in the oven for 1 hour.
• Flip roast over. Replace the lid and continue to roast for 1 hour.
• Raise oven temperature to 325˚F. Continue to roast, for 1 hour.
• If meat is tender and falling apart after three hours in the oven, it's done. The internal temperature should read 160˚F on a meat thermometer. Otherwise, you can reduce the oven temperature to 225˚F and give it another hour or so, checking with the thermometer for doneness every 20 minutes or so.

POT-ROAST BEEF WITH FRENCH ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Rub the meat with 1 tsp of the oil and plenty of seasoning. Heat a large flameproof casserole dish and brown the meat all over for about 10 mins. Meanwhile, add 2 tsp oil to a frying pan and fry the carrots and celery for 10 mins until turning golden.
• Lift the beef onto a plate, splash the wine into the hot casserole and boil for 2 mins. Pour in the stock, return the beef, then tuck in the carrots, celery and bay leaves, trying not to submerge the carrots too much. Cover and cook in the oven for 2 hrs. (I like to turn the beef halfway through cooking.)
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the onions. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and stir in the onions, thyme and some seasoning. Cover and cook gently for 20 mins until the onions are softened but not coloured. Remove the lid, turn up the heat, add the butter and sugar, then let the onions caramelise to a dark golden brown, stirring often. Remove the thyme sprigs, then set aside.
• When the beef is ready, it will be tender and easy to pull apart at the edges. Remove it from the casserole and snip off the strings. Reheat the onion pan, stir in the flour and cook for 1 min. Whisk the floury onions into the beefy juices in the casserole, to make a thick onion gravy. Taste for seasoning. Add the beef and carrots back to the casserole, or slice the beef and bring to the table on a platter, with the carrots to the side and the gravy spooned over.

Stir in the onion soup mix, thyme, bay leaves and 2 cups water. Add the meat with all its juices back to the pot. Bring the liquid to a simmer. Cover, transfer the pot to the oven and cook until the meat is very tender but still sliceable, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

• Return meat to pot, nestling it in onion mixture and spooning some tomatoes on top; return to a simmer. Cover and cook until meat is very tender when pierced with a fork, 1 1/2 to 2 hours (check occasionally to ensure it's simmering steadily). Uncover pot, increase heat to medium-high, and simmer vigorously until sauce is thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.

ONION BRAISED BEEF ROAST

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350'F (Let chuck roast sit on counter for at least one hour if it was previously chilled in the fridge. )
• 2. With your stove burner set to medium-high heat, in a dutch oven or heavy roasting pan add your olive oil.
• 3. While your olive oil is reaching smoking temperature, liberally rub the chuck roast with salt, pepper and garlic salt.
• 4. Once oil has reached smoking temperature, sear your chuck roast off in the pan on all sides. Don't move the roast around while searing or you won't get good browning. (Pan should be hot enough to quickly sear the meat if it is on medium-heat and oil is just smoking.)
• 5. Remove roast from pan and set aside once it is seared. (Meat should still be completely raw on the inside.)
• 6. Turn burner heat down to medium heat.
• 7. Deglaze pan with balsamic vinegar.
• 8. Add your garlic and onions to pan. Caramelize them gently. DO NOT over brown or burn.
• 9. Add celery and carrots to the pan, along with the red wine, bay leaves, parsley and Worcestershire sauce. Stir, then sweat covered with a lid in the pan for about 10 minutes.
• 10. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine beef stock, mushroom soup and gravy mix. Stir until completely incorporated. Set aside.
• 11. Once veggies are done sweating, remove lid from pan and add the roast back to the pan.
• 12. Pour beef stock mixture over the roast.
• 13. Salt and pepper pan to your preference.
• 14. Cover pan and leave it on the burner, set at medium, for 10-15 minutes. (This will allow the temperature of the liquids to raise before you put the entire pan in the oven. This is important for keeping the meat tender. Ovens cook from outside in making all the surface area of the pot heat first. But heating on a burner heats from the bottom up, heating only the liquid and not the entire pan and all the interior surfaces. Keeps the meat from seizing up.)
• 15. With the pan still covered, place in the oven for 3 hours.
• 16. Remove lid carefully, and cook for an additional 20-30 minutes uncovered.
• 17. Let meat rest 10-15 minutes before serving. (Reserve any excess juices from cooking, it makes a great soup stock, or gravy later.)
