SUNDAY DINNER SAVORY POT ROAST BEEF



Sunday Dinner Savory Pot Roast Beef image

I came up with this when I was tired of the typical onion soup flavored roast beef recipe, but not in the mood for the robust red wine version I use. My kids liked it a lot (they range in age from 1 to 14 and even the baby ate it up!) I serve it with scalloped potatoes and a green salad. We like it for Sunday Dinner after church.

Time 2h50m

2 1/2 lbs boneless chuck roast
1 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt
3 tablespoons olive oil (I use light tasting, not extra virgin)

1 inch cinnamon stick

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350.
  • Heat oil in a deep oven casserole dish or pot, that has a tight-fitting lid.
  • Rub the roast with Lawrey's salt.
  • When oil is hot, brown roast on all sides in the hot oil; look for a nice brown crispy texture.
  • When all sides are nicely browned, remove roast to a platter.
  • Put allspice, cinnamon, bay leaves and shallots in the hot oil and stirfry until shallots begin to brown; do not burn.
  • Pour in beef broth and stir, scraping sides and bottom of pan.
  • Return roast and any drippings that collected on the platter to the pot, turn once, cover tightly and put in oven (I don't even peek for the first 2 hours).
  • Roast until meat pulls apart, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours- check closely.
  • Remove roast to serving platter.
  • Pick out the 6 allspice berries, 2 bay leaves and cinamon stick, skim fat off and pour broth over the roast and serve.

KARLA'S BEEF CHUCK ROAST DINNER (IN A CROCKPOT)



Karla's Beef Chuck Roast Dinner (in a crockpot) image

I love making a chuck roast in my slow cooker, its so easy and delicious. Set it up in the morning and dinner is all done at the end of the day. I have done this same recipe in the 350° oven for 4 hrs. (turning meat over once through cooking) and add the vegetables the last 2 hrs. of baking time , its just as great that way...

Provided by Karla Everett

Categories     Roasts

Time 8h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3+ lb beef chuck roast ( or your favorite roast)
1 pkg dry onion soup mix
2 c water
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
2-4 medium whole onions
6-8 medium potatoes (or amount needed per person)
2 c baby carrots (or amount needed per person)

Steps:

  • 1. Place a thawed beef chuck roast into a 4qt. slow cooker and season both sides of the roast with garlic powder and salt & pepper.; Mix the water with the pkg. of dry onion soup mix and pour over top of the roast.
  • 2. Place peeled potatoes , whole peeled onions and carrots on top and around the roast. Season the vegetables with salt & pepper if desired.
  • 3. Cover the crock-pot with the lid and cook on low temp. for 8 hrs. Note : After the dinner is done before serving you can make a gravy with the juice if desired.
  • 4. For perfectly smooth gravy add flour to a jar w/lid containing at least one to 1-1/2 cups of water. How much flour? About two tablespoons per cup of gravy desired. Shake up the jar until the flour becomes part of the liquid. Pour the flour/liquid mixture into the hot pan of juices ( I like to pour mine through a fine mesh sieve ) and cook as usual on stove top, stirring constantly. Season ( I like to add 1 tsp. of kitchen bouquet for coloring and flavor)and stir to keep the gravy moving. Bring to a slow boil and cook at least three minutes until gravy is thickened. Deliciously smooth gravy!
  • 5. You can also make the gravy with corn starch. Mix a couple tablespoons with 1/4 cup of water, and then add it to the boiling juice. You will need more or less depending on how much liquid you are thickening -- make a little more than you think you need, and add it to your sauce, stirring constantly. Keep adding the cornstarch mixture until it's "almost but not quite" as thick as you want. It will thicken a little more while it cools.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cut of Beef: Select a roast with good marbling, such as chuck roast, rump roast, or brisket. These cuts are flavorful and tender when cooked slowly.
  • Season the Roast Generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and other herbs and spices to enhance the flavor of the roast. You can also add a flavorful rub or marinade to the roast before cooking.
  • Sear the Roast Before Roasting: Searing the roast in a hot pan before roasting helps to develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Cook the Roast Low and Slow: Roast the beef at a low temperature (300°F or lower) for several hours. This slow cooking process helps to tenderize the meat and develop its flavor.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: To ensure that the roast is cooked to the desired doneness, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meat. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F; for medium, aim for 145°F; and for well-done, aim for 160°F.
  • Let the Roast Rest Before Serving: After cooking, let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.

Conclusion:

With careful preparation and the right cooking techniques, you can create a delicious and satisfying beef roast dinner that will impress your family and friends. Experiment with different cuts of beef, seasonings, and cooking methods to find the perfect combination that suits your taste preferences. Whether you prefer a classic pot roast, a slow-cooked brisket, or a flavorful prime rib, there is a beef roast recipe out there that will satisfy your cravings. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to enjoy a hearty and comforting beef roast dinner tonight!
