CROSS RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the roast into a roasting pan. In a bowl, mix the Dijon mustard, 10 cloves of garlic, black pepper, garlic powder, salt, dry mustard powder, olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of paprika into a paste. Spread the paste over the top and sides of the roast. Pour the water and red wine into the roasting pan, and sprinkle in the dry onion soup mix. Drop in the beef bouillon cubes. Sprinkle the top of the roast generously with more paprika and 3 more crushed cloves of garlic. Cover the roast with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour, and reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roast until the meat is tender, about 2 more hours, basting occasionally with pan liquid. Remove foil during last 30 minutes of roasting to help brown the meat. Remove roast to a platter.
• Place roasting pan over medium heat, and bring the liquid to a simmer. Scrape up and dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the pan into the liquid. Stir the golden mushroom soup into the pan drippings until the gravy is smooth and thickened. To serve, slice the roast, pour hot gravy over the slices, and serve with remaining gravy.

SLOW COOKER ITALIAN BEEF CROSS RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Start by searing the beef in a hot skillet to create a gorgeous crust on the roast.
• Heat a large skillet or cast iron pan over high heat. Rub the roast with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano on both sides. Place the roast into the hot skillet to sear for about 5 minutes on each side.
• Place the seared roast into the slow cooker and top with the Italian Seasoning packet, sliced pepperoncini peppers, pepperoncini brine, sliced onions, Calabrian chillis, and hot chillis. Pour beef broth around the beef.
• Cook on high for 6 hours or low for 8-10 hours.
• Remove the pepper stems, then remove the roast from the crock pot to discard excess fat and shred the beef. Place the shredded beef back into the slow cooker to soak up all the delicious juices before serving.

TINK'S CROCK POT ROAST

Steps:

• Arrange potatoes, onions and carrots in bottom of crock pot.
• In a small bowl, combine celery salt, oregano, thyme, sea salt & pepper.
• Massage the spices into the roast and place the roast atop the veggies.
• Toss in the bay leaf.
• Pour beef base and water mixture (or beef broth) over the roast and veggies.
• Put the lid on the crock pot and cook on LOW setting for approximately 6-8 hours or until roast and veggies are tender.
• Optional: For gravy you can stir in the flour and water mixture in the last 30 minutes of cooking time and turn the crock pot up to High setting.
• I prefer to remove the meat and veggies from the crock pot and pour the liquid into a saucepan. Bring to a slight boil and slowly pour in flour and water mixture while stirring constantly. Bring to a full boil and cook and stir until it thickens up to your liking. About 3-5 minutes total.
