Moms Roast Beef Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Sear the meat all over, about 2 minutes per each side.
• Move the meat to the side (or remove it from the pot altogether if necessary), add the celery, carrot and onion and brown the vegetables, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for a minute or 2 longer. Add the wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add the tomatoes, water and bay leaves (and the meat if you removed it). Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning. Add more salt if necessary. Cover the pot and bake, basting the meat occasionally, until tender, about 3 hours.
• About 20 minutes before the meat is tender, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally. Add the shells, give it a stir and cook until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta.
• To serve, you can pull the meat apart with a couple of forks right in the pot at the table. Serve with the pasta, plenty of sauce and vegetables, tossing them all together.

Steps:

• Place roast in roaster pan and sprinkle with vinegar, pepper, garlic powder and the onion soup mix.
• Cover roaster and bake at 325º-350º for at least 3-4 hours.
• The last hour of cooking I remove the lid to brown the roast a bit.
• Then with the drippings, I make gravy (remove roast and cover with foil. Heat the drippings on the stove over fairly high heat. Add more water if necessary, and bring to a boil. Whisk in a slurry of flour and water (fairly thick) stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Adjust salt and pepper.).

Steps:

• Trim any super large pieces of fat from the meat, but leave a lot of fat on, it makes it tender.
• Score the meat in several places.
• Mix all ingredients together and pour over meat.
• Cover and marinate overnight, flipping occasionally.
• The next day, put the meat AND the marinade in a 5-6.5 quart Crockpot and set on low.
• Cook on low for 6-9 hours depending greatly on your crockpot until the meat is falling apart tender.
• In my 6,5 L crockpot it took only 5 1/2 hours.
• Shred the meat roughly and serve with potatoes using the juice as gravy. Do not throw out the Juices from the pan -- save it with the meat.
• Alternatively, cook it in the oven.
• In a covered pan and bake at 300 degrees for 3 hours for 4 pounds and 4 hours for 5 pounds.
• Baste occasionally.
• Take out and slice.
• Replace it in the pan and pour some of the marinade over brisket. Increase the temperature to 350 degrees and continue baking for another hour, uncovered.

Steps:

• I am estimating the ingredient amounts. It really depends on the size of the roast you want to cook. I used a 5.5 lb roast last time and it came out perfect.
• Rinse and pat dry roast.
• Cover all sides of roast with coat of butter. Use as much butter as required to cover.
• Pat all sides of roast with flour. Use as much flour as required to cover.
• Cook roast in 325 degree oven for 1 hour.
• Remove roast, cover with foil and let sit for 20 minutes.
• To make gravy (recommended), spoon of fat from pan drippings.
• Put pan over heat and mix in 1/3 cup flour and salt (to taste). Use a slotted spoon to scrape the pan and combine in pan drippings from the roast.
• Mix in water and flour and continue stirring and adding water and flour until gravy reaches desired thickness.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a Dutch oven; brown roast on all sides. Add onion and cook until transparent. Add coffee, 3/4 cup water, bouillon, basil, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Cover and simmer for 2-1/2 hours or until meat is tender.
• Combine flour and remaining water until smooth; stir into pan juices.
• Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly.
• Remove roast and slice. Pass the gravy.

Steps:

• 1. In large skillet, cook onion and shredded beef in butter until onion is tender crisp and beef is just a bit crispy. Add remaining ingredients except milk and gravy. Whisk milk and gravy together until smooth. Add to skillet. (If there is no leftover gravy, just increase milk to 1 1/2 cups.) Stir all together and bring to a boil.
• 2. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for approximately 20 minutes or until potatoes are done. The liquid should be absorbed. NOTE: If you have leftover potatoes you can use cooked potatoes. Just reduce liquid by 1/2 cup and reduce final cooking time to merely heating the dish completely before serving.
