Time 2h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic, smashed
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons dry sherry
4 cups low-sodium beef stock
1 cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 star anise
1 bay leaf
1 clove garlic
2 cups thinly sliced radishes (about 8 ounces)
4 crusty hoagie rolls
1 pound Homemade Roast Beef, thinly sliced, recipe follows
8 thick slices gruyere
Watercress, for serving
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, minced
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
One 4-pound boneless beef eye round roast
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • For the au jus: Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Add the peppercorns, salt, thyme, garlic, rosemary and shallots. Cook the shallots, stirring occasionally, until they become translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the sherry and simmer, a few minutes. Add the stock and simmer, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the liquid. Keep warm.
  • For the pickled radishes: Simmer 1/2 cup water, the vinegar, sugar, coriander seeds, salt, star anise, bay leaf and garlic. After 10 minutes of simmering, pour the mixture over the radishes in a heat-proof container and cool.
  • For the sandwich build: Place the bottom halves of the rolls on a work surface. Place the sliced Homemade Roast Beef on the bottom. Top with 1 slice gruyere each, some pickled radishes and watercress. Cover with the tops of the rolls. Cut each sandwich in half, dunk into the au jus and realize sometimes leftovers are just better.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper and garlic in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over the roast, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, about 20 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over high heat. Wipe off the excess garlic and herbs and add the roast to the pan. Sear the roast on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the roast to a roasting pan with a rack. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 125 degrees F, about 50 minutes. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest, about 10 minutes. Thinly slice the roast and serve.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (3 pound) beef eye of round roast
½ cup dry red wine (merlot or cabernet sauvignon)
½ cup beef broth
2 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • Combine the oil, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic into a paste, then rub all over the roast. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour. Forty minutes into the hour, pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • On a baking sheet, place two sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil large enough to cover the roast. Place the roast on the foil sheets and transfer everything to the oven. Roast for 6 minutes per pound.
  • Remove from the oven. Fold up the foil so it wraps the roast then return it to the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 170 degrees F and roast for one hour. After an hour, check the internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer: 120-125 degrees F will yield a rare center, 130-140 degrees F will yield a medium-rare center, and 140-150 degrees F will yield a medium center.
  • When the roast is finished, remove it and set it on a cutting board to rest. Transfer any drippings from the roast into a saucepan, then combine with the red wine and beef broth. Bring to a simmer over med-high heat and reduce by 1/4; reduce heat to medium-low and whisk in the cubes of butter one at a time until incorporated into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
  • Slice the roast into 1/2 inch thick slices and serve with the pan sauce poured on top.

A PERFECT EYE OF ROUND ROAST BEEF



A Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef image

Without fail, my mother-in-law made an eye of round roast beef for Sunday dinner every week. While I tried to do so myself, I always had varying results. Sometimes, I overcooked it, and other times, it was too rare. I finally discovered this method that produced a perfect roast beef every time, that was medium, and even rarer in the center, and pleased all of our tastes. The key is to use an eye of round roast (or any well-rounded and even-shaped roast). The seasonings are up to you. I listed very basic seasonings, but I use different meat rubs at times, or whatever I'm in the mood for. While there are not enough pan drippings to make gravy, the juices make a lovely au jus to accompany the beef. This works for any size roast and couldn't be easier.

Time 2h35m

Yield 1 beef roast

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 beef eye round
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
paprika, to taste (optional)
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. If desired, trim off excess fat from roast beef. Season with salt and pepper (and paprika, if desired). Rub meat with vegetable oil.
  • Place meat in roasting pan in preheated oven.
  • Roast beef for 5 minutes per pound. Then turn off oven. DO NOT OPEN OVEN FOR 2 HOURS! (For example, a 4-lb. roast would take 20 minutes to cook and then sit in the turned-off oven for 2 hours.).

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Roast: Opt for an eye round roast that is about 3 to 4 pounds, ensuring it has good marbling for extra flavor and tenderness.
  • Seasoning and Searing: Generously season the roast with salt, pepper, and any additional herbs or spices of your choice. Sear the roast in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to create a flavorful crust.
  • Slow Cooking: Transfer the seared roast to a slow cooker along with the cooking liquid, typically made from beef broth or water. Cook the roast on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours, allowing the meat to become fall-apart tender.
  • Creating the Au Jus: While the roast is cooking, prepare the au jus by sautéing vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions in the same skillet used for searing the roast. Deglaze the pan with red wine or beef broth, then add the vegetable mixture and simmer until the vegetables are tender.
  • Finishing Touches: Once the roast is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Strain the cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the skillet with the vegetables and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Eye round roast au jus is a delectable and comforting dish that showcases the rich flavors of beef. By following these tips and techniques, you can create a tender and flavorful roast surrounded by a savory au jus sauce. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy family meal, and it can be easily paired with various side dishes such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad. Enjoy this classic recipe and impress your loved ones with your culinary skills!
