Best 9 Cracked Black Pepper Crusted Beef Medallions With Cremini Recipes

PEPPERCORN ROASTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Place the tenderloin on a roasting rack. Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and sugar, which will deepen the savory flavors.
• Press the crushed peppercorns all over the surface of the meat. Insert a meat thermometer and place in the oven until the beef registers 120 to 125 degrees F for medium-rare/rare. Beef will probably cook in 20 to 25 minutes depending on its temp before it goes in the oven.
• While the meat is roasting, melt the butter with the garlic in a small skillet, and allow the butter to slightly brown. Remove the garlic and discard.
• Remove the meat when it's done and pour the garlic butter over gently (it should sizzle when it hits the meat). Cover the meat loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

HERB & PEPPER CRUSTED RIB OF BEEF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Mix the rock salt, peppercorns, garlic, rosemary, parsley and olive oil. Rub this mixture all over the beef rib then place in a roasting tin. Put in the oven and cook for 30 mins, then turn the oven down to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and cook for a further 1 hr 20 mins. Remove from the oven, transfer the beef to a board, cover with tin foil and rest for 30 mins before carving.
• While the beef rests, make the gravy. Pour off all but 2 tbsp of fat from the roasting tin and reserve any juices. Fry the onions in the roasting tin over a medium heat for about 10 mins, then add the wine, stock and reserved juices. Keep cooking for a further 10 mins to reduce to a thick sauce, season well and serve alongside the roast beef.

BLACK PEPPER-CRUSTED ROAST BEEF WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• For the meat: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the roast beef generously on all sides with salt and coat with the pepper. Put the roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Arrange the garlic halves in a single layer of foil with some foil to spare. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Wrap the foil over the garlic into a little package and place in the oven. Roast 45 minutes, then set aside.
• Meanwhile, place the roasting pan in the center of the oven and cook, undisturbed, for 20 minutes. Lower the temperature to 350 degrees F, and continue to cook until a thermometer inserted in the center of the meat registers between 135 and 140 degrees F for medium-rare, about 2 hours Remove the roast beef and place it on a cutting board to rest for 20 minutes. (The roast temperature will continue to increase as it rests; the end slices will be more well done.)
• For the gravy: Pour off excess grease from the roasting pan, then add the wine and bring to a boil over a burner. Reduce the liquid by half and whisk in the mustard. Add the stock and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the lemon juice. Season to taste.
• Squeeze 4 of the garlic halves like lemons over the blender to release the flesh from the skins, allowing the flesh to fall into the blender. Ladle some of the gravy into the blender and blend until smooth. Whisk the garlic back into the gravy. Squeeze the remaining garlic halves directly into the gravy and use the back of a spoon to smash them into the gravy. Taste for seasoning.
• Serve the roast whole on the platter to carve at the table with the gravy on the side, or arrange slices of beef on a platter and coat with a layer of the gravy.

PEPPER-CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine peppercorns, 1 tablespoon salt, the sugar, and red-pepper flakes. Rub all over tenderloin to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until almost smoking. Add oil, and brown meat, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reaches 120 degrees, about 16 minutes. Remove from oven, and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with grainy-mustard aioli and squash.

ROASTED FILLET OF BEEF WITH BLACK PEPPER

Steps:

• Trim meat, removing excess fat and silver skin. Cut off about 4 inches of narrow end, about 1 pound, and reserve for another use.
• Place fillet on large sheet of parchment paper. Dust all over with salt, using 3/4 teaspoon salt to a pound of meat. Roll in peppercorns. Tie with butcher's string at 2-inch intervals. Wrap meat in parchment loosely, and refrigerate at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours.
• Remove fillet from refrigerator an hour before cooking. Rub all over with oil. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Sear fillet on all sides in a heavy roasting pan over two burners, under broiler or on grill. Or cut in half and sear in two pieces in large, heavy skillet.
• Place in oven in roasting pan. Roast 15 minutes. Test with instant-read meat thermometer: if thickest part registers about 105 degrees, meat will be very rare when finished. For medium rare, roast 20 to 25 minutes, until thermometer registers 115 degrees. For medium, roast longer, to 125 degrees. At these temperatures, meat will be slightly undercooked, but will continue to cook after it is removed from oven. Place meat on cutting board. Allow it to rest 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove string, cut meat in 1/2-inch thick slices, arrange on a platter, and serve.

• Combine bread crumbs, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, shallot, garlic, parsley, rosemary, thyme, Dijon, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to a paste-like consistency.
• Spread herb paste all over the tenderloin. Tuck thinner end of the tenderloin underneath so it will cook evenly. Season with salt and pepper and place on the prepared cooking rack.
• Place in the preheated oven and reduce temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 135 degrees F (57 degrees C), about 45 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for about 10 minutes before slicing into medallions.
