Time 14h35m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (5 pound) blade chuck roast
2 cups balsamic vinegar
1 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon dried savory
1 tablespoon dried mint
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon butter
3 cups beef stock

Steps:

  • Combine roast, vinegar, olive oil, salt, peppercorns, savory, mint, rosemary, and thyme in a resealable plastic bag. Coat roast with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate roast in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in an oven-safe pot over medium heat. Transfer roast to hot butter, reserving marinade in bag. Cook roast until browned on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Place roast on a work surface.
  • Pour marinade into the pot and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Add broth and simmer until sauce is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Return roast to pot and cover.
  • Cook roast in the oven until meat falls apart when poked with a fork or knife, 6 to 8 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Serve meat with reduced sauce.

Pan-Roasted Balsamic Onions image

We mixed leeks with equal amounts of red and white pearl onions and cipollini (flat little Italian onions), but you can use any combination of small, sweet onions.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dinner Recipes     Dinner Side Dishes

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 ounces white pearl onions
10 ounces red pearl onions
10 ounces cipollini onions
2 1/4 pounds leeks
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup Homemade Chicken Stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add white and red pearl and cipollini onions, and boil for 1 minute. Drain. Let stand until cool enough to handle, then carefully peel, leaving root and stem ends intact. Transfer to a large bowl, and add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss to combine.
  • Meanwhile, remove any damaged outer leaves from leeks, then trim and discard dark-green tops. Trim roots of leeks without cutting off the base. Cut them in half lengthwise, and let soak in a large bowl of cold water for 5 to 10 minutes to rid them of dirt and sand. Lift leeks from water, pat dry, and place in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt; toss to combine.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and leeks. Saute leeks until slightly tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove leeks from skillet, and set aside.
  • Add remaining tablespoon oil and white, red, and cipollini onions to skillet, and saute turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium low, and add balsamic vinegar and stock; cover skillet, and cook until onions are tender, 20 to 30 minutes, adding the leeks to pan after 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover, and add butter; increase heat to high, and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until liquid reduces to a glaze and coats the onions, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, and garnish with thyme leaves. Season with salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.

EASY ONION POT ROAST



Easy Onion Pot Roast image

While I tend to make pot roast differently each time I make it, this recipe has been a frequent success. Note that, excepting the worcestershire sauce, this is a salt-free recipe.

Provided by Lennie

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:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, or brisket are good options for pot roast.
  • Browning the meat before braising adds flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables for added flavor and nutrition.
  • Add some herbs and spices to the braising liquid for extra flavor.
  • Be patient! Pot roast takes time to cook, but the results are worth it.

Conclusion:

Pot roast with balsamic onions is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful dish to serve at your dinner table, give pot roast with balsamic onions a try. You won't be disappointed!
