Herbed Beef Pot Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the fennel seed, rosemary, basil, marjoram, savory, thyme, sage and salt; rub over roasts. Place roasts fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Top with onions and rosemary sprigs., Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°)., Discard onions and rosemary. Let roasts stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients. Serve with beef.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, brown meat in oil. Add the water, onion, seasonings and tomato paste. Cover and simmer for 1-1/2 hours or until meat is tender. , Stir in potatoes, carrots and green pepper; simmer 30 minutes. Add additional water if necessary. Stir in remaining ingredients; cover and simmer 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook and stir the ground beef in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking the meat up as it cooks, until the meat is no longer pink and has started to brown, about 10 minutes. Skim off excess fat, and stir in the onions and garlic. Cook and stir the meat mixture until the onions are translucent, about 10 more minutes.
• Stir water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, soy sauce, Italian seasoning, bay leaves, and seasoned salt into the meat mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir macaroni into the mixture, cover, and simmer over low heat until the pasta is tender, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, discard bay leaves, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Season both sides of beef with salt and pepper.
• In a dutch oven or heavy skillet; brown both sides of beef in oil, until nice and browned.
• In a bowl, mix all ingredients except for the beef broth and Sherry. They are for thinning out the juices later.
• I used my dutch oven throughout the whole process. If you don't have one, use a small roaster. Place the beef in the pan, pour tomato mixture over the meat. Place lid on top and place in oven. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes; then lower heat to 350 and continue baking until beef is tender...mine was done in 2 hours. During the last 30 minutes, I added Sherry and beef broth to thin out the tomato mixture. Also gives the sauce a deeper, rich flavor.
• When the meat is able to be pulled apart with fork. Take from oven. Pull or cut the roast into bite sized pieces. Place the beef pieces back in with the sauce. Stir.
• Now, ladle over your noodles or potatoes...so, so flavorful...I keep tasting the sauce, if needs more seasoning, add to your preference.

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from beef. Rub Dutch oven with fat.
• Cook beef in Dutch oven over medium heat about 10 minutes or until brown.

Steps:

• Spray 12-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Cook beef in skillet about 5 minutes until brown on all sides. Sprinkle with salt, herbs and pepper.
• Place garlic in 4- to 5-quart slow cooker. Place beef on garlic. Pour vinegar over beef.
• Cover and cook on low heat setting 6 to 8 hours or until beef is tender. Reserve 1/4 cup of the beef juices.
• Cut half of the beef into thin slices to make 3 cups; place in refrigerator or freezer container along with reserved 1/4 cup beef juices for Philly Beef Sandwiches (page 77). Cover and refrigerate beef up to 4 days or freeze up to 4 months. To thaw frozen beef, place container in refrigerator about 8 hours.
• Serve remaining half of beef now.
