HOW TO COOK TOP SIRLOIN STEAK IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Prepare the steak marinade according to the instructions here. Marinate the steaks for 3-8 hours (but not longer). (Alternatively, you can simply season generously with salt and pepper and skip the marinade, but the marinade makes them so juicy!)
• Remove the steaks from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking, to let them come to room temperature. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). At the same time, preheat a cast iron grill pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes.
• Once the oven is just a few minutes away from being preheated, add the butter and heat until melted. Add the steaks in a single layer. Sear for about 2 minutes, without moving around, until browned with grill marks on the bottom. Flip and sear for 1-2 minutes on the other side.
• Transfer the pan to the preheated oven. Bake for 2 to 6 minutes, to your desired level of doneness. For a 1.5-inch (4 cm) thick steak, that's usually 2 minutes for rare, 3 minutes for medium rare, 4 minutes for medium, 5 minutes for medium-well and 6 minutes for well done. Use a meat thermometer to be sure - 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) for rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare, 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium, 150 degrees F (66 degrees C) for medium well, and 160 degrees F (71 degrees C) for well done. Steak temperature will increase by an additional 5 degrees when resting in the next step.
• Remove the sirloin steaks from the oven and transfer to a plate. (Do not leave in the pan or they will be overcooked.) Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

OVEN ROASTED SIRLOIN STEAK WITH ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• in a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup and soy sauce. Stir in the cider vinegar, maple syrup, and apple cider. Add the garlic powder, paprika and cinnamon, then stir to combine with the liquid ingredients.
• pat dry the steaks, and place them in a large, sealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade into the bag with the steak, and seal the bag. Turn the bag back and forth several times to distribute the marinade and coat both steaks with it. Place the steak in the refrigerator to marinate for a total of 1 to 2 hours. Remove the steak to marinate at room temperature for the final 20 minutes before cooking.
• to 400 degrees at the time you take the steak out of the refrigerator.
• after turning on the oven. Heat the olive oil on medium low in a skillet. Add the onions and the salt. Cook the onions for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring infrequently to let the onions get a chance to brown. They should be starting to get nicely caramelized, indicated by the brownish color, after 15 minutes or so. Keep the onions on low heat until ready for the next step.
• steak: Coat a large, oven proof skillet with oil spray. Place on medium high heat. When the skillet is hot, remove the steak from the marinade bag, shaking excess marinade back into the bag. Reserve the excess marinade. Place the steaks on the skillet, and sear for 1 minute on one side, then turn to brown on the other side for another minute. After browning the steak, move the steak into the preheated oven.
• Roast the steak in the preheated oven (and finish making the sauce while the steak roasts - see next step). Roasting time will vary based on your oven, thickness of the steak and how you like your steaks cooked. I would check the steak at about 8 minutes of roasting time, as sirloin cooks quickly. Our steaks were fairly thick, about 1 1/2 inches thick, and came out medium rare after 10 minutes. When done to your liking, remove the steaks from the oven. Transfer steaks to a platter to rest for a few minutes.
• Pour the reserved marinade from the bag into the pan with the onions. Add the 1/4 cup red wine. Bring the heat up to high to bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce to simmer vigorously for at least 5 minutes. Stir in the butter and the chili powder, and cook until the butter has melted. Keep the sauce warm until ready to serve.
• Slice the steak, plate, and serve topped with the onion sauce. Pass extra onion sauce at the table. Enjoy!

TOP SIRLOIN ROAST

Steps:

• Make small slits in the roast using a sharp knife; tuck slivered garlic into each slit. Rub minced garlic, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper over the entire roast. Set aside until roast comes to room temperature, 15 to 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Arrange potatoes, carrots, and onions in an even layer in a 9x12-inch roasting pan. Dissolve beef bouillon cubes in hot water in a small bowl and pour over vegetables. Pour in beef broth and beer.
• Place roast on top of the vegetables, making sure it is not submerged in the broth mixture. Place bay leaf pieces around the roast.
• Bake roast in the preheated oven until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees F (66 degrees C) for medium, 45 to 60 minutes. Transfer roast to a platter; cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest until internal temperature reaches 155 degrees (68 degrees C), about 10 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Add red pepper and mushrooms to the roasting pan and return it to the oven. Bake until vegetables are tender and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Thinly slice the roast crosswise. Serve with vegetables; spoon pan juices over meat and vegetables.

SIMPLE SIRLOIN STEAK

Steps:

• Remove the steaks from the fridge about 30 mins before you plan to cook, so they're closer to room temperature. Pat the steaks dry with kitchen paper, and season with salt and pepper. Take a heavy-based frying pan that will comfortably fit both steaks, add the oil and heat over a high flame.
• When the oil is shimmering, turn the heat down to medium-high and add the butter. Once it's sizzling, carefully lay the steaks in the pan, tucking the garlic and herbs in at the sides.
• With a pair of tongs, sear and turn the steaks every 30 secs to 1 min so they get a nice brown crust. As a rough guide, each steak will take 3 mins in total for rare, 4-5 mins in total for medium and 7-8 mins for well done. If you have a digital cooking thermometer, the middle of the steak should be 50C for rare, 60C for medium and 70C for well done.

SLOW-COOKED SIRLOIN

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, brown beef on both sides. Place onion and green pepper in a 3-qt. slow cooker. Top with beef. Combine broth, Worcestershire sauce, dill, thyme, pepper and pepper flakes; pour over beef. Cover and cook on high until meat reaches desired doneness and vegetables are crisp-tender, 3-4 hours., Remove beef and keep warm. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into cooking juices. Cover and cook on high until slightly thickened, about 30 minutes. Return beef to the slow cooker; heat through.

ROAST SIRLOIN OF BEEF & PORT GRAVY

Steps:

• For the beef, mix the garlic, thyme and olive oil with some black pepper. Rub over the beef and leave for at least 1 hr, the longer the better. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6, season the beef with salt and place in a roasting tin. Roast in the oven for 30 mins, then turn the heat down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and cook for 10-15 mins per 450g depending on how you like your meat - 10 mins per 450g will give you rare meat and 15 mins will give you meat that is cooked through.
• When the beef is cooked, take it out of the roasting tin and allow it to rest somewhere warm, loosely wrapped in foil, for 30 mins. Pour off and reserve any resting juices.
• To make the gravy, place the roasting tin on a high heat with the garlic, bay and thyme. Splash in the Port, scrape with a wooden spoon to loosen any debris from the tin and bubble until almost completely reduced. Pour in the red wine and reduce by three-quarters before adding the stock. Bring to the boil and season to taste. Pour reserved resting juices back into the tin. Finally, pour the gravy through a sieve into a warm jug. Carve the meat and serve with the gravy.

GARLIC TOP SIRLOIN POT ROAST

Steps:

• Rub salt, pepper and paprika into the meat. With a small knife, make slits in the roast. Press the garlic slivers into the roast.
• Place the potatoes, carrots, and onions in a large slow cooker. Place meat on top of the vegetables. Pour in water and beef broth, and add bouillon cubes and bay leaf.
• Place lid on slow cooker, and cook for 6 hours on High, or 8 hours on Low. During the last half hour of cooking, add the green peppers.

ROAST SIRLOIN OF BEEF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil or fat in a large fl ameproof roasting tin in the oven for 5-10 mins. Season the beef all over.
• Place the joint fat-side down in the roasting tin and put it on the hob. Sizzle to release some of the fat, then turn the beef in the fat to seal and colour it all over, about 5 mins. The joint can now be roasted, fat-side up, allowing 10-15 mins per 450g for medium-rare, 15-20 mins per 450g for medium, 20-25 mins for medium-well and 25-30 mins for well done. Turn the joint halfway through its cooking time for an even roast. Once roasted, remove the beef from the pan and leave to one side, loosely covered with foil, to rest for 15-20 mins.
• Meanwhile, pour off any excess fat from the roasting tin, then put the tin on a medium heat on top of the stove. Once it begins to sizzle, pour in the red wine, allowing it to boil rapidly until almost completely evaporated. Tip in the consommé and allow to simmer for 4-5 mins. This will give a light sauce, rather than a gravy (see tip, below). Simmer for a few more mins before straining through a sieve for the smoothest of fi nishes. Carve the beef into thick slices, offering the gravy separately.
