Beef Tips In Red Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Remove the tenderloin from the refrigerator 1 hour prior to cooking.
• On the tail end of the tenderloin, about a third of the way from where it begins to taper, make an incision almost all the way through the beef. Fold the tail onto the larger portion to make an even cylinder throughout. Use ten to twelve 8-inch pieces of butcher's twine to tie the tenderloin crosswise every 3/4 to 1 inch. This will help it to keep its shape and cook evenly.
• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• Pat the tenderloin dry. Brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season heavily with salt and pepper all around. Put the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the beef and sear on all sides until a nice crust is formed, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add the thyme, garlic and 3 tablespoons of the butter to the pan. Once the butter is melted, use a spoon to baste the beef with the herb and garlic infused butter for 30 seconds.
• Transfer the beef to a rack on a baking sheet, spoon over 2 tablespoons of the herb and garlic butter mixture from the cast-iron pan (reserve the pan) and roast until the internal temperature of the thickest part reaches 120 degrees F (for medium rare), 1 to 2 hours, depending on the size of the tenderloin. Cover the beef with foil and rest for 15 minutes.
• Add the shallots to the remaining herb and garlic butter mixture in the cast-iron pan and sweat over medium heat until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Deglaze with the red wine and reduce until almost dry, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the beef stock, bring to a simmer and reduce by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thoroughly mix the remaining 2 tablespoons butter with the flour in a small bowl.
• Reduce the heat to low and slowly whisk in the butter and flour mixture bit by bit, until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. Serve with the perfectly roasted beef.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Toast the guajillo chiles, california chiles, and chiles de arbol on the grill until they are charred in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool, then remove the stems and seeds and cut them in half. Put aside 6 guajillo halves. Soak the rest of the chiles in water, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the coriander, cumin, oregano, peppercorns, allspice, ginger, cloves, bay leaves, garlic and onion to a blender, and add enough of the soaked chiles to come about halfway up the blender cup. Add 1/2 cup of the chile soaking liquid and 1 cup water and process until very well blended and runny. Transfer to a large bowl. Blend the remaining soaked chiles with more water as needed.
• Heat 1/2 cup canola oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add the blended chile sauce and cook until it begins to simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Bring 1/2 gallon of water to a boil in a large pot.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle the beef shanks on both sides with a pinch of salt. Heat the remaining 1/2 cup oil in a large, heavy skillet over very-high heat, then sear the beef shanks until a golden crust is formed, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer the seared shanks to the pot of boiling water, then add the sauce and reserved 6 chile halves. Add the remaining 1/2 cup kosher salt to the mixture and boil over medium heat, uncovered, until the sauce reduces, 20 to 30 minutes. Cover and simmer over low heat until the meat is fork-tender, about 1 hour. Taste the sauce and add salt as needed.

Steps:

• For the marinade: Place the steak in a 2-gallon resealable plastic bag and place the bag in a large bowl. Add the shallots, oil, honey, mustard, cilantro, parsley, thyme, garlic, oregano, wine, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper to the bag. Cut the oranges in half, squeeze the juice into the marinade and then add the halves as well. Seal the bag, squeezing out any excess air, then massage the marinade into the steak, making sure all the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Marinate the steak in the refrigerator for 2 1/2 hours.
• Preheat a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, making sure to pull off any marinade ingredients like herbs or shallots that stick to the steak (reserve the marinade). Generously sprinkle the steak all over with salt and pepper. Grill until dark grill marks form, 3 to 4 minutes per side; then turn the heat down, cover the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, another 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the steak from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the marinade in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until thickened and reduced down to 1 1/2 cups, approximately 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer.
• To serve: Rub a cutting board with olive oil and garlic, then sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Put the steak on top and slice it against the grain. Garnish with cilantro and parsley leaves, and serve with the red wine herb sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. In a large, heavy-based flameproof casserole dish with a lid, melt the butter over a medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, cook for 10 mins until starting to brown, then transfer to a small plate.
• Put the flour in a large plastic food bag with plenty of black pepper. Add half the beef, shake to coat, then remove, leaving some flour in the bag. Add the rest of the beef and shake to coat in the remaining flour.
• Heat the oil in the same casserole dish you cooked the onions in (there's no need to clean it first). Add the beef and bay leaves, and fry until the meat is browned all over. Pour in the wine and return the onions to the dish. Add the tomato purée and stock, stir and return to a simmer. Cover with the lid and put in the oven to stew for 1 hr.
• After 1 hr, add the mushrooms and return to the oven for another hour. Taste the meat - if it's tender, remove from the oven. If it's still a little firm, cook for 30 mins more and test again. Serve scattered with parsley, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large frying pan. Put the beef in a bowl, sprinkle with the flour and seasoning, then mix until well coated. Fry in batches, adding more oil if necessary, until everything is well browned. Transfer to a casserole dish.
• Add another tbsp oil to the pan and stir in the onion and carrots. Cover and gently cook for 10-12 mins until softened, then remove the lid and cook until just beginning to brown. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the wine and stir well, letting it boil up for 1 min, then pour the whole mixture over the meat. Add the stock, bay leaves and thyme, bring to a simmer, then cover and gently simmer for 2½ hrs until the meat is very tender. If the sauce looks a bit thin, remove the lid and continue to cook until it thickens. Eat half now; chill or freeze the rest for later (see 'Goes well with' for ideas on using the rest of the stew).

Steps:

• A day ahead, marinate the beef. Bring the wine to the boil in a large saucepan, then boil until reduced by a third to remove the alcohol (takes about 8-10 mins). Leave to cool for about 1 hr. Mix the beef steaks, carrots, celery, baby onions, garlic, crushed peppercorns and bouquet garni together in 1 or 2 large bowls, then pour the cooled red wine over them. Cover with cling film, put in the fridge and leave to marinate for 24 hrs.
• The next day, place a large colander over a large bowl and tip in the beef mixture to drain off the marinade. Leave for at least 1 hr to remove excess liquid.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Sprinkle the flour on a baking sheet and cook for 8-10 mins until it has turned pale brown. Set aside. Reduce oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2.
• Separate the beef, vegetables and herbs and pat dry with kitchen paper. Reserve the marinade liquid. Season the beef with 4 pinches of salt. In a large, heavy-based casserole over a high heat, warm the clarified butter, then colour the beef steaks in it for 5-7 mins on each side - in batches if necessary. (To clarify butter, warm it gently in a small pan. The white milk solids will sink to the bottom, then you can carefully pour off the clear, clarified butter.) With a slotted spoon, transfer the beef to a plate and set aside. Add the drained vegetables to the casserole. Lower the heat to medium-high and cook for 5 mins until lightly coloured, stirring occasionally.
• Tip the toasted flour into the casserole and stir for a few secs. Pour in the marinade wine little by little, stirring constantly to incorporate it into the flour and until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened. Add the beef and herbs, bring the sauce to the boil and skim if necessary. Cover with a lid and cook in the oven for 3 hrs.
• To finish the sauce, place a colander (big enough to hold the meat and veg) over a large saucepan and drain off the cooking liquor from the casserole. Put the saucepan on a high heat and boil until the sauce has reduced by about half to make a lightly coating sauce. Skim if necessary. Taste the sauce. Do not add any salt as you will be adding the smoked ham or lardons later. Return the beef and vegetables to the casserole, then pour over the sauce (discarding the herbs).
• For the garnish, heat the butter over a high heat in a large non-stick frying pan, then fry the mushrooms until lightly caramelised, adding a little more butter if necessary. Season to taste. Mix into the beef with the finely sliced ham or freshly fried lardons. Heat through, sprinkle with the parsley and serve piping hot.

Steps:

• Pat steak tips dry with paper towels and season with salt & pepper. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add steak tips and cook until well browned all over and meat registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to plate and tent loosely with foil.
• Add 1 TBL butter to now-empty skillet and melt over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 2 mintues. Add wine and sugar and simmer until nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add broth and any accumulated steak juice from plate and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup, about 3 minutes.
• Off heat, whisk in remaining 3 TBL butter and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return steak tips to skillet and toss with sauce.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the slow cooker on high.
• Heat the oil and butter in a frying pan, and fry the bacon and garlic gently for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the beef and stir over a low heat until lightly browned on all sides.
• Stir in the flour, then slowly add the red wine, stirring until well blended. Add the bay leave, onions and seasoning. Bring to the boil, then transfer to the slow cooker.
• Cook on low for 7-10 hours.
• Discard the bay leave and season to taste.

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or kettle, sauté the beef in the butter and oil. Add the vegetables and continue to cook until tender.
• Sprinkle with flour, reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the wine, broth, tomato paste and seasonings. Simmer for 50 minutes covered.
• Serve over noodles.

Steps:

• Start by cutting the tenderloin into 6 equal pieces, then flatten each piece using a mallet or heavy weight until each piece is 1/4 inch thick.
• Season with the salt and pepper.
• In a medium skillet, melt a tablespooon of butter over med-high heat.
• Add the beef, in batches if necessary, and saute until outside is brown but inside is still very pink, about 2 minutes on each side.
• After browning remove each tenderloin from pan and keep warm.
• Add remaining butter to skillet, and when melted, add mushrooms and shallots.
• Saute until tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the sugar over the mixture, and cook until deep brown, about 4 minutes longer.
• Add vinegar, garlic, herbs, and flour and stir one minute, until liquid is absorbed.
• Add broth and wine, and bring to a boil.
• Cook until liquid is thickened and reduced to about 1/2 cup.
• Return beef to the pan, and heat through, about 1 minute.
• Arrange beef on plate and spoon sauce and mushrooms over.

Steps:

• Season flour with salt and pepper. Dredge beef tips in flour.
• Heat oil until smoking in a large skillet. Add beef and brown. Turn to brown all sides. Transfer beef to slow cooker.
• Add onion and mushrooms to skillet. Cook until soft and browned. Add to slow cooker.
• Deglaze skillet with wine, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add to slow cooker.
• Add boullion, tomato sauce and garlic to slow cooker. Cook on high 2-3 hours or low 5-6 hours until beef is very tender.
• Add Worcestershire sauce and stir well. Serve over mashed potatoes or buttered noodles.

Steps:

• Place beef, onions and mushrooms in a 4 quart or larger slow cooker.
• Add dry soup mix. Sprinkle with cornstarch and salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour wine over all. Cover and cook on low 10 to 12 hours or high 5 to 6 hours.
• Stir well before serving.

Steps:

• Put the beef in a container just big enough to fit snugly. Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl and tip over the beef. Cover and chill, turning and basting as often as possible. Leave for 24-72 hrs.
• Pour the Port and wine into a large pan and simmer until reduced to a glaze. - this will take about 20 mins. Heat the oil in a separate large pan and, when almost smoking, add the beef scraps and cook until dark golden. Add the shallots, garlic, peppercorns and herbs. Fry for a few mins until starting to brown, then add the reduced alcohol and stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 25 mins. Strain into a clean pan, then simmer for 8-10 mins until thickened. Season to taste and chill until needed.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Remove the fillet from the marinade and brush off the herbs, reserving them and the garlic for later. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan. When almost smoking, add the fillet, season with 2 tsp salt and fry for 5-7 mins, turning every so often.
• Add the butter, cube by cube, and - when foaming - baste the fillet, turning regularly. When the fillet is caramelised, put in a roasting tin with the reserved herbs and garlic, and cook in the oven for 8-12 mins, turning every 4 mins and basting. To check that the beef is done, insert a probe thermometer into the centre - it should read 55-60C for medium rare. Transfer to a board, wrap loosely in foil and rest for 20 mins.
• Return the tin to the oven until the butter is hot. Before serving, roll the fillet in it. Serve with the sauce, croquettes, carrots and garlic.
