Mesquite Roast And Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in stock pot over medium heat; sear roast in the hot oil until slightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove roast from pot and place on a plate. Cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until onion is lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Return seared roast to the stock pot; pour coffee and 1 1/2 cup water over roast. Add beef bouillon, basil leaves, 1 tablespoon salt, and pepper.
• Bring broth to a boil; reduce heat to medium low, cover stock pot, and simmer until meat is falling apart, 2 to 3 hours. Remove and discard basil leaves. Transfer roast to a serving dish and cover with a lid or aluminum foil, keeping the broth in the stock pot over medium heat.
• Whisk flour and 1/2 cup water together in a bowl until smooth. Slowly whisk flour mixture into broth until gravy is smooth and somewhat clear; season with salt. Pour about half the gravy over the roast and pour the rest into a gravy boat for serving.

Steps:

• Cut roast in half; place in a 3-qt. slow cooker. In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over roast. , Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. Freeze option: Place sliced pot roast in freezer containers; top with cooking juices. Cool and freeze. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a covered saucepan, gently stirring and adding a little water if necessary.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a 9-by 13- by 2-inch pan or your oven's broiler pan with a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil large enough to fully wrap the roast. The shiny side of the foil should be up. Sprinkle the roast on all sides with salt and pepper and place it in the center of the foil. Spread the onion slices over the top of the roast and pour the vinegar around it. Bring the ends of the foil together and fold several times, and then fold the ends together to completely enclose the roast. Pour about 1 inch of water into the pan around the foil-wrapped roast. Bake until the meat is fork tender and brown, 3 to 4 hours. Check the water level in the pan regularly during cooking and replenish it if necessary. If any juice seeps from the foil seals during roasting, save it to use in making the gravy. When the roast is done, remove the package from the baking pan and let it cool for a few minutes. Open the package carefully to preserve all the juices and transfer the meat to a platter. Cover with a tent of foil to keep it warm while you make the gravy. Pour the roasting juices into a measuring cup and let the fat rise to the surface. Skim off the fat, reserving 4 tablespoons in a saucepan and discarding the rest. (If the fat measures less than 4 tablespoons, add enough butter to make up the difference.) Measure the remaining defatted pan juices and reserve. If you have less than 2 cups, add water to make 2 cups. Add the flour to the fat in the saucepan and stir with a wire whisk to make a roux. Cook over medium-low heat until the flour is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the reserved pan juices and stir until thickened. Slice the roast or cut it into chunks (it will be very tender), and serve it with the gravy.

Steps:

• Marinate the meat: I placed mine in a plastic bag and added McCormic's Grill Mates Mesquite Mix, this is where you will use the oil. refrigerate for 25 minutes. Save a little of the mix to baste halfway through the cook time.
• peal potatoes and cut them up into quarter size pieces.
• peal the onion and cut it into medium size pieces, not chopped.
• peal the carrots and cut them in half the long way and then cut them into 1 inch pieces.
• cut the celery ribs in half the long way and then cut them into 1 inch pieces.
• sear the meat on all sides: turn the heat up high and add 4 tablespoons of oil to the pan. cook the meat for about 2 minutes on all sides, I used a set of tongs to hold the meat vertical to sear the edges.
• place the vegetables into the pot with the 1/2 teaspoon of beef bouillon & water mix.
• place the meat on the top of the vegetables and cover the pot.
• set your crockpot to high for 4 hours.
• remove meat and set aside, cover it with foil to keep warm. mix your corn starch with 1/4 cup of water and add it to the vegetables stiring it up slowly the gravy will thicken.
