Garlic Stuffed Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Stuff half of the garlic into the roast. Sprinkle the roast with the salt and pepper. Put the remaining garlic in the bottom of a roasting pan. Set roast fat-side up on top of garlic and add water to the bottom of the pan.
• Bake, uncovered, until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees F. Refrigerate the roast and liquid overnight.
• The next day, skim off any fat from the top of the liquid. Heat the liquid on the stove until it reaches the desired consistency for a gravy. Thinly slice the roast and add to the gravy. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. If you like, serve the beef in French bread with mayonnaise, lettuce, dill pickle slices and tomato slices.

Steps:

• Marinate the steaks overnight in olive oil, sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. You can utilize any fresh herbs you have in your garden or local market such as rosemary. Take the steaks out and let them rest about an hour before you start to work with them. In the meantime, fire up the oven to 350 degrees F. Take your garlic bulbs and slice them in half diagonally. Season with olive oil and sea salt. Roast on a pan in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the garlic is nice and golden brown and your house smells heavenly. Take out and set aside.
• Heat your saute pan with some olive oil and throw in about 6 cloves of fresh chopped garlic when hot. Add spinach and saute until spinach is just wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Chop up the sun-dried tomatoes and toss with the spinach. When the spinach has cooled, throw in the brie and the roasted garlic. You can easily pull the roasted garlic from the 'husk' by using a toothpick to pull it out. Mix together very well!
• Season with salt and pepper. You can also throw in a teaspoon or so of fresh rosemary at this point. Set aside. Take your steaks and cut a slit into the side of them, just as you would with stuffing pork chops. Carefully stuff the steaks with your roasted garlic stuffing. Throw those guys on the BBQ for about 3-4 minutes per side pending your guests preference. I serve these steaks over garlic mashers which I usually just throw in an extra bulb of garlic to roast when making the stuffing and mash it all up with some fresh potatoes, butter and cream. A little parsley to garnish.
• For the sauce, take 4 tablespoons of butter and melt in a saucepan over low heat. Add about 6 cloves of fresh chopped garlic, 1/4 cup of cream and 4 tablespoons of good quality balsamic vinegar. Throw in a sprig of fresh rosemary and reduce the sauce by about 1/3. Take out the rosemary. To plate, place lean against a heap of the garlic mashers and drizzle the sauce around the plate and over the potatoes. Garnish with fresh rosemary. It is excellent to have a nice fresh loaf of bread to serve with this. I also BBQ up some fresh local corn on the grill to accompany this meal. It is a fairly easy and gourmet meal to prepare. You can even make the stuffing the night before. Enjoy! And long live garlic!!!

Steps:

• Using the tip of a sharp paring knife, make 20 to 24 evenly spaced small slits about 1 1/2-inches deep all over the pot roast. Using your fingers, insert the garlic cloves as deep into the meat as possible. Season the roast evenly on all sides with the salt and pepper.
• Heat a Dutch oven over high heat. Add the oil and, when very hot, use the meat fork to add the roast. Sear on all sides until very well browned, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Don't be afraid to let the roast get very brown -- this is where a lot of the flavor comes from. When the roast is evenly browned on all sides, add the water and stir to loosen the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Cover the Dutch oven, reduce the heat to low/medium-low and cook the roast until it is very tender, about 3 hours, turning two or three times during the entire cooking time. Check occasionally to make sure that you always have 1-inch or so of liquid on the bottom of the pan. If necessary, add more water.
• When the roast is very tender, transfer to a serving platter and slice or pull meat apart into serving pieces. Reduce the pan juices slightly, if desired, and serve drizzled over the top of the roast. Garnish with fresh thyme and parsley.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place all vegetables except the beets in a roasting pan. Place beets in a separate roasting pan. Drizzle all vegetables with extra-virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
• Place in oven and roast for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and carmelized.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cut about 6 holes per side into pork roast with a sharp knife and insert garlic clove halves into the holes. Rub roast with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season all sides of roast with kosher salt and a generous amount of black pepper, Italian seasoning, rosemary, and cayenne pepper. Place into a roasting pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Turn off the oven with roast inside and leave it to rest for 1 hour. Refrigerate meat overnight.
• Cut cold pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices. If any garlic appears on the cut surface of the meat, pick it out so it doesn't burn. Season slices with salt.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat and sear pork slices in the hot oil until browned and crusty, about 10 minutes per side.
• Toss lettuce with tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with red wine vinegar; toss again to coat.
• Heat beans in a saucepan over low heat. Layer about 1/3 cup white beans into a large, shallow soup plate; top beans with a slice of pork shoulder and about 1/4 cup lettuce mixture.

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, cut a deep pocket between each rib on meaty side of roast. Combine the green pepper, green onions, celery and garlic; stuff deeply into pockets. Season roast with salt and cayenne pepper. , Place roast, rib side down, in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour 40 minutes or until thermometer in the pork reads 145°. Let stand for 15 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425. In a small bowl, roughly mash 3/4 cup Roasted Garlic with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
• Rinse chicken inside and out and pat dry. Gently slip your fingers between skin and meat of breast, thighs, and legs to loosen skin. Evenly spread mashed garlic under skin, starting with leg and thigh area and working your way back toward neck. Generously season chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Tuck wing tips underneath chicken and tie legs together with kitchen twine.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet or roasting pan on high. Add oil, swirl to coat skillet, then add chicken. Cook 1 minute, then transfer skillet to oven. Roast chicken until skin is deep golden brown and juices run clear when pierced between breast and leg (an instant-read thermometer should read 160 degrees when inserted in thickest part of a thigh, avoiding bone), 40 to 45 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Make small slits all over in the roast then stuff whole or half garlic cloves into each slit.
• Rub the roast with olive oil.
• In a small bowl combine the sage with salt, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne pepper; rub the roast all over with the spice mixture.
• Place the roast in a roasting pan, then let sit out on the counter for a few hours.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Set oven rack to middle position.
• Roast for about 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (the temperature will rise more after removing from the oven).
• For the glaze: while the roast is cooking in a small saucepan combine the sugar with cornstarch, vinegar, water and soy sauce; bring to a simmer over medium heat stirring occasionally.
• Cook until bubbly and thickened.
• Brush the roast 3-4 times during cooking.
• The last 30 minutes of cooking pour the remaining glaze over the roast.
• Allow the roast to sit for about 10 minutes before slicing.
