Time 1h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup (50 mL) prepared horseradish
2 tbsp (30 mL) cracked multi-coloured peppercorns
1 tsp (5 mL) coarse salt, like a kosher or Maldon salt
3 lb (1.36 kg) Beef Oven Roast
1 ½ cups (375 mL) low sodium beef broth
1 tbsp (15 mL) cornstarch
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine horseradish, peppercorns and salt. Rub all over roast. Place on rack in shallow pan. Insert oven-safe meat thermometer into centre of roast (try a programmable thermometer).
  • Oven-sear in 450˚F (250˚F) oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 275˚F (140˚C); roast until thermometer reads 145˚F (63˚C) for medium, about 1¼ to 1½ hours.

  • Easy Pan-Gravy
  • Place roasting pan over medium-high heat and pour in low-sodium beef broth. Bring to boil, stirring up any brown bits from bottom of pan.

  • TIP 1: Substitute 1/2 cup (125 mL) of beef broth with red wine. Before adding broth to pan, pour in wine, stirring and scraping up any brown bits (as above). Cook over high heat to reduce by half, about 2 minutes. Add 1-1/2 cups beef broth and finish as above.
  • TIP 2: Add a few sprigs of fresh thyme or rosemary to beef broth while simmering. No need to chop the herbs as the leaves will fall off the stem as the gravy cooks. Remove stems before serving.
  • TIP 3: Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter to the completed gravy to add rich flavour.

FRIED CHICKEN WITH BLACK PEPPER GRAVY



Fried Chicken with Black Pepper Gravy image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon yellow mustard powder
1 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 cups low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup hot sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 8)
One 16-ounce container vegetable shortening
1 quart neutral frying oil
2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
4 dashes hot sauce

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, mustard powder, paprika, garlic and onion powders, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and vinegar in a second bowl.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Line a second baking sheet with a cooling rack.
  • Place the chicken on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  • Working with one hand dedicated to the flour mixture and one hand dedicated to the buttermilk, dredge the chicken thoroughly in the flour mixture. Shake each piece individually to make sure it is fully coated and any excess flour is released. Place in the buttermilk mixture and toss gently to coat. Place the chicken back into the flour mixture to dredge again. Remove from the flour mixture and place on the parchment-lined baking sheet. (Reserve flour mixture.)
  • Place a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the vegetable shortening to the skillet and heat until melted. Once all the shortening has turned to liquid, add oil to the skillet until it comes up 1 inch from the rim. Attach a deep-frying thermometer to the skillet and preheat the oil to 350 degrees F.
  • Carefully add half the chicken to the oil. This will cause the temperature to decrease, so adjust the heat to maintain 325 degrees F. Fry the chicken, flipping only once halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bone, registers 170 degrees F, 14 to 18 minutes. Remove the chicken to the cooling rack. Sprinkle with kosher salt and set aside; fry the remaining chicken.
  • For the gravy: Transfer 1/4 cup of the frying oil to another cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the flour mixture used to dredge the chicken. Cook until a smooth paste is formed, 2 to 3 minutes. While whisking continuously, pour in the milk. Simmer until the sauce thickens and can easily coat the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Pour the gravy over the fried chicken.

CRACKED PEPPER GRAVY



Cracked Pepper Gravy image

A buddy e-mailed me this a while back, It's pretty dang good too. Cracked pepper is different from freshly ground pepper because the former is stronger in flavor and aroma. Grind them in a food processor or blender, only pulsing them once or twice just to crack them.

BLACK PEPPER GRAVY



Black Pepper Gravy image

A creamy and peppery white gravy that will sure to please everyone! This goes great on fries, mashed potatoes, and meats! If you are wary of adding all of the pepper, add a teaspoon at a time and taste. I like mine really peppery, so I always use the 2 tablespoons. My mother doesn't like it so peppery, so she tends to use 1 or 1 1/2 tablespoons. The best part about this recipe is that you can adjust the spice to your liking!
