Categories     Roast Beef

Time 3h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups thinly sliced onions
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 boneless cross-rib roasts or 1 short rib roast, weighing about 3 pounds
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 cup water
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F degrees.
  • In a large casserole dish or Dutch oven or roaster (it should be able to go on the burner as well as go in the oven), spread half the onions.
  • Rinse roast under the tap, pat dry with paper towel, and place on onion mixture.
  • Cover with remaining onions and all the garlic; sprinkle pepper and thyme over top.
  • Mix together the 1 cup water and worcestershire, and pour over roast.
  • Cover and cook in preheated oven for 2-1/2 to 3 hours, or until roast is tender. (I turn the roast over after half the cooking time has past, although the original recipe did not call for it)
  • Place meat and onions on a serving platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm; if you let the roast stand for 10 to 15 minutes it will be easier to carve.
  • Meanwhile, add enough liquid to the pot, if necessary, so you have 2 cups (use water, wine, beef broth, whatever you wish-- I use beef broth and red wine combined, usually); skim off any visible fat.
  • Dissolve the cornstarch in the 2 tbsp cold water; stir into pan juices.
  • Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, for about 3 minutes or until the gravy is boiling and is thickened.
  • Strain gravy if desired, carve roast into thin slices, and serve.

Tips:

  • Brown the roast in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. This will help to seal in the flavor and juices.
  • Add the onions, garlic, and carrots to the pot and cook until the onions are softened. This will add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Add the beef broth, water, and Worcestershire sauce to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 hours, or until the roast is tender.
  • Remove the roast from the pot and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded roast to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.

Conclusion:

This easy onion pot roast is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for a family dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover roast beef. The roast is cooked in a flavorful broth with onions, garlic, and carrots, and it is then shredded and served with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
