Boneless Beef Cross Rib Roast With Green Beans And Onion Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place garlic on large piece of foil. Pour 2 tablespoons wine over garlic. Wrap foil around garlic to enclose. Roast garlic until soft, about 40 minutes. Cool. Press garlic between fingertips to release from skins; set aside.
• Cook bacon in large pot over medium heat until brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels. Pour drippings into small bowl. Return 2 tablespoons to same pot; reserve remainder. Increase heat to high. Working in batches, add beef to pot and brown, about 7 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer meat to large bowl.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Add chopped onion and chopped carrot to pot; sauté 5 minutes. Mix in flour. Return beef and accumulated juices to pot. Stir in tomato paste. Add herb sprigs, bay leaves, roasted garlic and 2 cups wine; simmer 15 minutes. Add 3 cups broth. Cover; simmer 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Uncover; simmer until meat is tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 1/2 hours longer. Discard herb sprigs and bay leaves.
• Cook pearl onions in large saucepan of boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Using 4- to 5-inch-diameter strainer, transfer onions to medium bowl; cool slightly, then peel. Return water to boil. Add carrots and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Transfer to bowl of ice water to cool. Drain. (Bacon, stew and vegetables can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
• Heat 2 tablespoons reserved bacon drippings in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; sauté until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add pearl onions to mushrooms; sauté until onions are golden, about 4 minutes. Add carrots; cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Bring stew to simmer, thinning with more broth, if desired. Stir bacon and 2/3 of vegetables into stew. Transfer to large bowl. Top stew with remaining vegetables.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the roast into a roasting pan. In a bowl, mix the Dijon mustard, 10 cloves of garlic, black pepper, garlic powder, salt, dry mustard powder, olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of paprika into a paste. Spread the paste over the top and sides of the roast. Pour the water and red wine into the roasting pan, and sprinkle in the dry onion soup mix. Drop in the beef bouillon cubes. Sprinkle the top of the roast generously with more paprika and 3 more crushed cloves of garlic. Cover the roast with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour, and reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roast until the meat is tender, about 2 more hours, basting occasionally with pan liquid. Remove foil during last 30 minutes of roasting to help brown the meat. Remove roast to a platter.
• Place roasting pan over medium heat, and bring the liquid to a simmer. Scrape up and dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the pan into the liquid. Stir the golden mushroom soup into the pan drippings until the gravy is smooth and thickened. To serve, slice the roast, pour hot gravy over the slices, and serve with remaining gravy.

Steps:

• NOTE: The success of this recipe will depend upon how accurate the temperature of your oven is and how will it retains heat. Adjust cooking time +/- according to your individual oven.
• IMPORTANT: Determine the EXACT weight of the roast from the meat wrapper. Weight will determine how long to cook the roast. If you have a probe meat thermometer with an alarm, I recommend using it.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Cut all visible fat from the outside of the meat. Rub the entire outside of the roast with salt, pepper, or seasonings of your choice, such as thyme, garlic powder, etc. (If using a probe thermometer insert it into center of the meat. Set the temperature to your desired degree of doneness and set the alarm.).
• Place roast in roasting pan and bake according to the following Cooking Chart:.
• RARE - 3 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE/RARE - 3 1/4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE - 3 1/2 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM - 4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM WELL - 4 1/2 minutes per pound.
• WELL DONE - not recommended with this method.
• Set your oven timer for the cooking time calculated from the Cooking Chart above.
• When cook time is completed, TURN THE OVEN OFF! DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR AT LEAST 1-1/2 HOURS or until the probe alarm signals desired temperature has been reached. After removing roast from oven, tent with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• To reserve meat juices, slice rare/medium rare roasts on a platter where juices can collect. Pour juices into roasting pan, scraping loose any pan drippings, and pour au jus over the roast.
• OPTIONAL ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS: Slice mushrooms and onions. In frying pan coated with non-stick cooking spray, saute mushrooms and onions until limp and tender. Add 2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and set aside.
• FOR GRAVY: For each cup of au jus (beef liquid), make a slurry by stirring 1-1/2 to 2 tsp of cornstarch into 1 tbs water. Bring au jus to a slow boil (adding 1 cup beef broth, cooked mushrooms and onions w/vinegar if using optional ingredients); stirring constantly. Gradually add the slurry to the boiling au jus. Cook on medium, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens - about 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve.
