SUNDAY DINNER SAVORY POT ROAST BEEF



Sunday Dinner Savory Pot Roast Beef image

I came up with this when I was tired of the typical onion soup flavored roast beef recipe, but not in the mood for the robust red wine version I use. My kids liked it a lot (they range in age from 1 to 14 and even the baby ate it up!) I serve it with scalloped potatoes and a green salad. We like it for Sunday Dinner after church.

Categories     Savory

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 lbs boneless chuck roast
1 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt
3 tablespoons olive oil (I use light tasting, not extra virgin)
2 bay leaves
6 allspice berries
1/4 cup slivered shallot (one shallot big enough to fill your hand)
1 (14 ounce) can of good beef broth
1 inch cinnamon stick

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350.
  • Heat oil in a deep oven casserole dish or pot, that has a tight-fitting lid.
  • Rub the roast with Lawrey's salt.
  • When oil is hot, brown roast on all sides in the hot oil; look for a nice brown crispy texture.
  • When all sides are nicely browned, remove roast to a platter.
  • Put allspice, cinnamon, bay leaves and shallots in the hot oil and stirfry until shallots begin to brown; do not burn.
  • Pour in beef broth and stir, scraping sides and bottom of pan.
  • Return roast and any drippings that collected on the platter to the pot, turn once, cover tightly and put in oven (I don't even peek for the first 2 hours).
  • Roast until meat pulls apart, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours- check closely.
  • Remove roast to serving platter.
  • Pick out the 6 allspice berries, 2 bay leaves and cinamon stick, skim fat off and pour broth over the roast and serve.

LAZY SUNDAY POT ROAST WITH CARAWAY AND GREEN APPLES



Lazy Sunday Pot Roast with Caraway and Green Apples image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons oil, or more if needed
1 (4 to 5-pound) boneless cross-rib pot roast or other chuck roast
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
2 medium onions, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced
1/2 cup cider vinegar (or substitute white vinegar)
3 bay leaves
1 tablespoon caraway seeds
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh marjoram (or 2 tablespoons dried)
2 to 2 1/2 cups beef stock
4 Granny Smith or other tart green apples, quartered, cored and peeled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • In a 5-inch-deep Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Dry the meat with paper towels, sprinkle it generously with salt and pepper, place in the pot, and brown well, about 8 to 10 minutes per side. When the meat is well browned, transfer it to a platter.
  • Pour off fat or add oil to the pot as needed so you have about 2 tablespoons in the pot. Add the onions and saute, stirring, until translucent, 7 to 9 minutes.
  • Add the vinegar and bring to a boil, scraping up any brown stuff from the bottom of the pan. Put the meat back in the pot and add the bay leaves, caraway seeds, brown sugar, marjoram, and enough stock so that the liquid comes halfway up the sides of the meat. Bring just to a simmer and skim any scum off the surface then cover, put in the oven, and cook until the beef is fork-tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. After 2 hours and 15 minutes, add the apples to the pot; after 2 1/2 hours, remove the apples with a slotted spoon, set aside, and begin checking the meat for doneness. To check for doneness, plunge a fork straight down into the meat and try to pull the fork out. If the fork slides out easily, the meat is done; if the meat hangs on to the fork, give it more time.
  • When the meat is done, remove it from the pot, cover it loosely with foil, and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Skim the fat from the braising liquid and taste the liquid. If it needs more flavor, place the pan on the stove over medium-high heat and simmer to reduce the liquid. For a thicker sauce, reduce it until it coats the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper. (You can also strain the liquid and pass it and the cooked onions separately.)
  • Cut the meat into thin slices and serve accompanied by the apples, braising liquid, and onions.

BONNIE'S SUNDAY DINNER POT ROAST- HER WAY



BONNIE'S SUNDAY DINNER POT ROAST- HER WAY image

I just threw this recipe together for tonight's dinner after Church. It cooked all day in the slow cooker, and it came out just perfect. It is so tender, and the gravy is just yummy. This is one of those food experiments that works on the first try. I won't change a thing, and I will serve it to the kids the next time they...

Provided by BonniE !

Categories     Beef

Time 6h20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 2 1/2 to 3 pound chuck roast
5 medium size red potatoes, unpeeled, scrubbed and cut in half
2 cans cream of chicken soup (do not add water to it)
2 cans mushroom slices, drained
1 mushroom can filled with marsala wine
1 heaping teaspoon of chopped garlic
cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil for searing meat
salt and pepper the meat to your taste before searing

Steps:

  • 1. Trim the fat from the chuck roast, and pat it dry. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium high heat and add the roast. (I use cast iron) Get a good sear on both sides of the meat.
  • 2. While the meat is searing, combine the following ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl: 2 cans cream of chicken soup, 2 cans of sliced and drained mushrooms. 1 mushroom can of Marsala wine, 1 heaping teaspoon chopped garlic and black cracked pepper. Mix well. Set aside.
  • 3. Cooks Tip: I used a liner for easy clean up. It is great for storing the leftovers. You just lift it out and place it in a container. Refrigerate. The next day, you put it back in the slow cooker to reheat it.
  • 4. Place the seared meat in the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the potatoes. Pour the bowl mixture over the top of the roast. Put on the lid and don't look at it again until dinner time. Cook 2 hours on high, and then 4 to 6 hours on low until it is as tender as you like it. The gravy will turn a lovely golden brown, and there is no need to thicken it.
  • 5. Here is a couple of shots of how it looks! Enjoy!
  • 6. Leftovers are great the next day!

1 (4 lb) boneless chuck roast
kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if needed
2 carrots, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 bunch various fresh herb, such as tarragon, rosemary, parsley, tied with twine
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup dry red wine, such as cabernet sauvignon
2 1/2 cups low sodium beef broth
2 cups watercress
1 cup picked fresh parsley leaves
lemon juice, for drizzling
olive oil, for drizzling
salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
risotto cake, for serving, recipe follows
3 cups low sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large shallots, minced (about 1/2 cup)
1 cup arborio rice
3/4 cup dry white wine
5 ounces frozen peas, defrosted
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 1/4 cups freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 ounces low-moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Using paper towels, pat the roast dry to help get a great crust on the meat. Sprinkle the roast generously with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons oil and heat until glossy. Add the roast and brown on all sides. Remove and transfer to a cutting board or a large plate.
  • Add more oil to the pot if needed, along with the carrots, celery and onions. Season with salt and pepper. Add the fresh herb bundle and cook until the vegetables start to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and continue cooking for another minute. Add 3/4 cup of the red wine and reduce by half, scraping up the seared bits and incorporating them into the juice. Then return the roast to the pot and add the beef broth. Bring the liquid to a simmer before covering with a tight-fitting lid and placing the pot in the oven. Allow the roast to cook until fork tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours, turning once halfway through.
  • Remove from the oven and transfer the roast to a large cutting board. Tent with foil while the roast rests. Placing the Dutch oven back on the stovetop over medium-high heat, add the remaining 1/4 cup of red wine to the liquid and reduce by half at a simmer, about 10 minutes. Strain the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Shred the roast into big chunks and toss with the jus.
  • For the herb salad:.
  • Toss the watercress and picked parsley with the lemon juice and olive oil to taste. Season with salt and pepper and top with the toasted almonds.
  • Serve on top of the Risotto Cakes and top with the fresh herb salad.
  • For the Risotto Cakes:.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the chicken broth to a simmer. In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shallots to the butter, cooking until fragrant and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the Arborio rice and lightly toast, stirring to coat in the butter and shallots. Add the white wine, continuing to cook while stirring until the wine is absorbed. You should be able to run your spoon through the risotto and have the indentation stay.
  • Using a ladle, add enough of the warm chicken broth to cover the rice, stirring constantly over medium heat until the broth is completely absorbed. Repeat the process 3 more times, adding the broth in stages while continuing to stir. Once all of the chicken broth has been added and the rice is tender, add the peas, lemon juice and lemon zest and stir to combine.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, mozzarella and season with salt and pepper. Cool the risotto by spreading it evenly over a sheet tray. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Once the risotto is cooled, form the mixture into burger-size patties, about 1-inch thick. Set up a dredging station with the flour in one dish, beaten eggs in another and panko breadcrumbs in another. Dip the rice patties into the flour, then into the eggs and finally coat them in the panko breadcrumbs.
  • In a large skillet, heat 1/2-inch vegetable oil over medium heat until a pinch of panko sizzles when dropped in the oil. Working in batches of 2 to 3, fry the risotto cakes until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side (use a fish spatula under the cake and the back of a fork on top to help stabilize while flipping). Transfer to a wire rack, which will help them stay crispy. Season with salt and they are ready to serve. Yield: 6 large cakes.

SUNDAY POT ROAST WITH GRAVY (FOR DIABETICS)



Sunday Pot Roast with Gravy (for diabetics) image

One thing about traditional pot roast is the potatoes (carbs) and gravy (fat and carbs). Here is an alternative to try. It retains all the flavor of grandma's Sunday pot roast, but prevents me from eating so many carbs. I can get my carbs with a good homemade roll with this meal, and be totally happy!

KATHY'S SUNDAY POT ROAST



Kathy's Sunday Pot Roast image

I have been making my Sunday Pot Roast this way for 46 years. It is always so tender it falls apart, and makes a delicious gravy. I always use a Sirloin Tip Roast as I have found it to be the most flavorful of the roast cuts. I have made it with other types of roasts and it is good, but it is great with a Sirloin Tip (ask your...

Provided by Kathy Sterling

Categories     Roasts

Time 3h45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 - 7 lb sirloin tip roast
2 tsp salt, or to taste
2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
1/4 c cooking oil
2 pkg lipton onion soup mix
8-10 c water, can add more if needed
BROWN GRAVY
1 c unbleached white flour
1 1/2 c water (do not use hot water)
3 salt

Steps:

  • 1. Rub Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder & Onion Powder all over roast to season. You can add any of your other favorite seasonings, I sometimes rub it with steak seasoning by TexJoy. In a large dutch oven heat cooking oil and brown roast on all sides.
  • 2. When roast is golden brown, put dry onion soup mix on top of roast then add enough water to cover the top of the roast by at least an inch. The amount of water will vary with the size of your roast.
  • 3. Bring to a boil then lower heat to a light boil. Continue cooking roast until very tender, falling apart. This takes 3 to 4 hours. Keep adding water if it cooks out. Once cooked, remove to a platter, reserving the juices in the pot. Turn off the heat and let juices cool down for about 15 minutes.
  • 4. In a large cup mix flour, a few dashes of salt and water and mix until there are no lumps. The salt helps dissolve the lumps in the flour & water. I have a large glass with a lid and put mine in that and shake it until lumps are dissolved. Add slowly to cooled juices, stirring constantly until paste is dissolved. Turn the heat back on and stir constantly until mixture comes to a boil. This thickens the gravy. I always put the roast back into the pot of gravy and serve it from there. You may prefer to have the gravy on the side.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, and brisket are all good choices for pot roast. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in liquid. Brown the beef before braising: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to develop a rich gravy. Use a variety of vegetables: Carrots, potatoes, onions, and celery are all classic pot roast vegetables. Other vegetables that can be added include parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, and mushrooms. Season the pot roast well: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all essential seasonings for pot roast. Other spices that can be added include rosemary, thyme, sage, and bay leaves. Cook the pot roast low and slow: Pot roast should be cooked at a low temperature for a long period of time. This allows the meat to become tender and the flavors to develop. Thicken the gravy: If the gravy is too thin, it can be thickened with cornstarch or flour.

Conclusion:

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a Sunday meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a little planning, you can make a delicious pot roast that your family and friends will love.
