CREOLE DAUBE
As old as the swamps in Louisiana, this recipe predates the title pot roast! This is the most wonderful tasting pot roast you'll ever try. Worth every minute of the work! I have such fond memories of my grandmother creating this magic in her kitchen and her entire house filled with the heavenly aroma. For the Creole seasoning, I use Emeril's with half the salt and then watch the amount of salt and pepper you add depending on the amount already in your Creole seasoning.

CREOLE DAUBE
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.

Steps:
- Rub beef all over with Creole seasoning. Place a heavy braising pan or wide casserole over medium heat and melt butter. Add beef and brown well on all sides. Add onions, carrots, garlic, bay leaves and pepper flakes. Sauté until vegetables are slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, stock and tomatoes with their juices. Cover and cook, turning occasionally, until beef is very tender and almost falling apart, about 3 hours.
- Remove meat from pan and cut across grain into slices about 1/2-inch wide. Break into small pieces, shredding and crumbling meat slightly. Set aside in a large bowl. Remove bay leaves from pan and discard. Add about 1/2 cup vegetables to bowl of meat. Strain remaining broth into a clean saucepan, and boil until reduced to 3 cups. Adjust salt to taste, add gelatin mixture, and pour into bowl of meat.
- Pour meat mixture into one 10-cup terrine, pâté pan or loaf pan, or 2 or 3 smaller pans. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled and firm, at least 12 hours. Serve as an appetizer with a sliced baguette, or sprinkle with vinegar and eat like a pâté with cornichons, or season with salt and pepper and use as a sandwich filling.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or short ribs are ideal for this recipe, as they are tough cuts that will become tender when braised.
- Sear the beef before braising: Searing the beef adds flavor and helps to brown the meat, which gives the daube its characteristic rich color.
- Use a good quality stock: The stock is the base of the daube, so it's important to use a good quality stock that is flavorful and rich.
- Add vegetables and herbs: The vegetables and herbs in the daube add flavor and complexity. Be sure to use fresh vegetables and herbs for the best results.
- Cook the daube low and slow: The daube should be cooked low and slow over low heat. This will help to tenderize the beef and allow the flavors to meld together.
Conclusion:
David's Creole Beef Daube is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and complex. This recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
