Easy Roast Beef Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat Oven to 500 Degrees.
• Remove Roast beef from package and rinse under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.
• Rub Olive Oil all over roast and put in roasting pan on a rack. (FAT SIDE UP).
• Sprinkle Garlic Powder and Black Pepper all over roast.
• Put in oven and roast at 500 degrees for 20 minutes.(do NOT open oven door during this step. You want the intense hot heat to "sear" the roast and keep in all the juices.).
• After 20 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees and continue roasting for at that temperature for 18 minutes per pound.
• *3lb Roast- 54 minutes
• *4lb Roast-72 minutes
• I generally start checking the temperature after 45 minutes of cooking at 300 degrees. When the roast reaches the required temperature (see below) remove from oven and let sit for 10-15 minutes.
• Timetable.
• Rare- 125-130 degrees.
• Medium rare- 130-140 degrees.
• Medium- 145-150 degrees.
• Well Done-155-165 degrees.
• After allowing the roast to "rest" Slice and Serve!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Heat oil in 10" or 12" cast iron pan on medium to medium high.
• sear meat on all sides.
• Add potatoes cut side down to brown at the same time meat is browning, don't crowd.
• remove meat to platter and brown remaining potatoes and kabocha (yam or squash).
• remove potatoes and kabocha to same plater.
• add onion to pan and brown until almost carmelized.
• add garlic to pan and cook 1 minute, then remove both from pan.
• Add mushrooms to pan and cook about 1 minute (add a little water, wine or broth if dry). Remove from pan.
• Turn burner off.
• In same cast iron pan, layer potatoes and kabocha into the bottom of pan, then add onions and garlic, put roast on top, then surround with mushrooms.
• Put into preheated oven and bake 40 minutes (20 minutes per pound of meat).
• Optional: Mix yogurt and horseradish well to make horsey sauce.
• Remove pan from oven, cover with foil (to keep moisture in pan), rest for 10 minutes. Carve and serve with horsey sauce.

Steps:

• Put Roast Beef into Slow Cooker.
• Cover with Soup Mix.
• Sprinkle with the Black Pepper.
• Top with the three Bay Leaves.
• Cook on Med-Low in a Slow Cooker for 8-9 hours-- OR 3-4 hours on High.
• OPTION: Add Carrots, Onions, and Potatoes the last couple of hours if on Med-Low or the last hour if on high-- NOTE**add the veggies in the order given since the Carrots take longer to cook and the potatoes the least time.
• Make gravy from drippings.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9.
• Mix 1 tsp plain flour and 1 tsp mustard powder with some seasoning, then rub all over the 950g beef top rump joint.
• Put 1 onion, cut into 8 wedges, and 500g carrots, halved lengthways, into a roasting tin and sit the beef on top, then cook for 20 mins.
• Reduce oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and continue to cook the beef for 30 mins if you like it rare, 40 mins for medium and 1 hr for well done.
• Remove the beef and carrots from the oven, place onto warm plates or platters and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Let the beef rest for 30 mins while you turn up the oven to cook your Yorkshire puds and finish the potatoes.
• For the gravy, put the tin with all the meat juices and onions back onto the hob.
• Stir in 1 tbsp plain flour, scraping all the stuck bits off the bottom of the tin. Cook for 30 seconds, then slowly stir in 250ml beef stock, little by little.
• Bubble to a nice gravy, season, then serve with the beef, carved into slices, carrots and all the other trimmings.

Steps:

• This works well for almost any size roast! I've used it for roasts as small as 3 and as large as 10, with nearly identical results. Best cuts to start with are large, tender cuts of beef - such as a rib or sirloin roast. Sirloin-tip, rump, rolled-rump, eye-of-round or top-round roasts will also benefit from this cooking method if they are graded prime or choice.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Season roast with salt and pepper, garlic salt, steak seasoning or whatever you like, including not at all. You can also add onions and/or carrots to your dish if you wish. They will be VERY well done, but I think they are delicious.
• Put the roast fat side down in a roasting pan or a Pyrex baking pan. I don't recommend using a rack under the meat, but that's just my preference.
• Put roast in oven for one hour. For a 7 PM meal, you can start it as late as 11 AM; for a 6 PM you can start it as late as 10 AM, and so forth. Or you can start it at whatever time you get up, which is what I usually do, since I leave for work at 8.
• At the end of the hour, turn the oven off, BUT DON'T OPEN THE OVEN DOOR! If there are going to be people in the house during the day, I put a note on the oven door saying DO NOT OPEN.
• About an hour before your meal, turn the oven back on to 375 degrees for 45 minutes. I usually put my potatoes, wrapped in aluminum foil, in at this time. At the end of the 45 minutes, take the roast out, and let it stand for 5 to 10 minutes. It's going to look burnt, but the meat will be wonderful! The pan drippings make great gravy, too!
• Carve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• Pour vegetable oil into a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt and black pepper. Brown the meat on both sides in the hot oil, and transfer to a plate.
• Stir carrots, celery, and onion into the pot, and cook and stir until vegetables start to release their juices, about 3 minutes; loosen any brown flavor bits on the bottom of the pot. Add butter, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Then sprinkle in rosemary, stir the vegetables, and return the roast to the pot. Cover the pot with a lid.
• Roast in the preheated oven until the chuck roast is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Season vegetables with additional salt and black pepper, if desired.
