(Pronounced "dobe", and rhymes with robe), this traditional Italian recipe has been passed down for generations. The flavors become more intense when it sits in the refrigerator a day or two or served as leftovers. If you've never tried beef roast in spaghetti sauce, you don't know what you've been missing!

Time 4h45m

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 Tbsp bacon grease
1 Tbsp olive oil; or 2 tbsp if not using bacon grease
3 - 3 1/2 lb boneless chuck roast
2 onions, chopped
1/2 bunch green onions, sliced fine
1/2 c celery, diced
1/2 c bell pepper, chopped
6 oz tomato paste
16 oz tomato sauce
1 can(s) whole or diced tomatoes (optional)
3 c beef broth
1/4 - 1/2 c burgundy wine
1 tsp oregano, dried or italian seasoning
2 Tbsp fresh chopped basil, or 1 tbsp dried
6-8 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp granulated garlic
1 Tbsp granulated onion
2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp sugar
salt & pepper to taste
1 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
8-10 cooked meatballs (optional)
chopped fresh basil for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Cut chuck roast into 1 1/2 to 2 inch cubes and pat dry with paper towel. In a heavy dutch oven heat the bacon grease and oil until hot. Add some of the meat and sear on all sides. Cook the meat in batches and don't over crowd the pot or the meat will steam instead of sear. When nicely browned remove meat to a plate and set aside.
  • 2. To the drippings in the pot add chopped onions, green onions, celery and bell pepper and saute on low until onions are tansparent but don't let them brown. Add tomato paste, tomato sauce and minced garlic; cook down for about 5 minutes stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
  • 3. Add wine and beef stock, oregano, basil, granulated garlic & onion, bay leaves, sugar and salt & pepper to taste.
  • 4. Simmer stock for about 30-45 minutes, adding more beef stock as needed to keep sauce fairly thin. Add meat back to pot, along with juices from meat, cover with a splatter screen or off-set the lid so steam can escape without splattering sauce all over the kitchen, and cook for 2-3 hours. Taste for seasoning and adjust to taste.
  • 5. As sauce begins to thicken, add fresh mushrooms and and meatballs (optional). When desired thickness is reached, taste for seasoning once more and ladle over spaghetti and garnish with chopped fresh basil. Serve with crusty french bread and fresh grated parmigiana reggiano. Enjoy!

DAVID'S CREOLE BEEF DAUBE



David's Creole Beef Daube image

My mother has been begging me to make a Daube, I will later this week. So while it's on my mind... The roux is the rock star in this dish as it brings a richness and flavor to a beef stew that no other ingredient can. In this case the darker the roux... The better it will be. My version is mostly Creole but has some traditional...

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 lb beef chuck roast, boneless and cut in large pieces
1/2 c canola oil
2-3 Tbsp https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/sauce-spread-rub/emerils-essence-creole-seasoning-make-your-own.html
1 1/2 c https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/sauce-spread-seasoning-mix/first-you-have-a-roux.html?p=12
3-4 medium yellow onions chunky chopped
1/2 stalk(s) celery stalks chunky chopped
2 medium bell peppers chunky chopped
4-6 clove large cloves garlic chopped fine
5-6 large carrot, sliced large chunks
2 parsnips (from traditional french daube, if not available you can omit) slice smaller than carrots
2-5 large potatoes yukon gold or red (are my favorites) you can use your favorite potato cut into large bite sized chunks
1 can(s) large cans tomato sauce, reduced sodium
1 small can tomato paste
2-3 large containers of beef stock
1 c red wine (any you have on hand will be fine, i like burgundy best)
1 c white wine (again any on hand will work, rieslings are best)
4 large bay leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Cut chuck roast into large chunks, nothing specific just larger than bite sized.
  • 2. Follow the link below for both the can of tomato sauce, then separately for the tomato paste. This eliminates the bitterness that the can puts into the contents. Remember only to purchase high end sauce and paste, it will be less bitter from the beginning and you will have a much better final dish. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/sauce-spread-other-sauce-spread/removing-the-bitter-taste-from-canned-tomatoes.html
  • 3. Chop onions, celery, bell pepper, parsnips, carrots, potatoes and garlic set asside
  • 4. In a deep heavy pot put about 2 tablespoons of canola oil on med high heat. Once hot start to brown the chunks of chuck. Brown on all sides and set aside. Continue until all beef is browned. DO NOT EMPTY THE POT. These wonderful drippings will add lots of flavor to your Daube in the next step.
  • 5. After chuck is browned, take the chopped up parsnips, carrots and potatoes and brown in the beef drippings, then set aside. If you have previously made your roux add it now, If not scrape out everything you can from the pot and put in a dish for use later. Now make your roux and make it VERY DARK!
  • 6. Now you have made your roux in the cleaned pot, or if you made some previously put in pot and bring to hot temp. Once the roux is ready add the aromatics and chopped garlic, cooked until tender.
  • 7. Now add the saved drippings and mix well. Then add the browned potatoes, carrots mix to the hot roux then mix well. Next add the browned chuck. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste and bay leaves and mix well. Cook this about 10 minutes, mixing every couple of minutes.
  • 8. Once mixture is hot add both cups of wine then mix well and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes mixing every couple of minutes. Now add 1 large container of beef broth and stir. You will only add from the beef broth in the ingredients that you will actually need to use. You probably will only use 1 1/2 of the containers of broth. I just want you to have enough on hand that you don't need to add any water, only the broth. You want the total liquid to just cover, at the level of pots contents if you go over a bit that's ok. It will cook down. If needed add more beef broth as this cooks down. You don't want to over do the liquid in this dish. When finished the liquid needs to be thick. Cook for about an hour after everything is in the pot, stirring occasionally. Always stir from the bottom of the pot to keep anything from sticking.
  • 9. This dish cooks down best if you keep it covered between steps above but isn't necessary. Make sure you stir regularly, always stirring from the bottom

CREOLE DAUBE



Creole Daube image

A recipe I found on Pinterest that looked delicious and I am posting it for ZWT, untried by me, but looks like a cross between a pot roast and swiss steak type of recipe. The recipe is posted on "Drick'sRamblingCafe.blogspot and here is what he stated: "In the late 1800's when Sicilian immigrants began settling in southern Louisiana, Creole cooking took on a completely new dimension. The influence of garlic for one and the use of tomatoes in making tomato gravy or red gravy such as the one featured in this recipe. This recipe will change the way you cook a roast and will fill your house with a wonderful aroma with the cuisine of long ago cooks. Enjoy!" There are several spices listed, but apparently it is common to post no specific amounts, so I would suggest starting with 1/8(maybe even less for the cayenne pepper) to 1/4 teaspoon and then taste and add more to your liking in the end.
