Best Perfect Boneless Beef Roasts Recipes

CLASSIC ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Salt the roast and let it come to room temp: The beef should be brought as close to room temperature as possible before you start to roast it, so that it cooks more evenly. Remove it from the refrigerator at least 1 hour, preferably 2 hours, before cooking. Open the wrapping, sprinkle all sides with salt, and wrap it up again.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F: (190°C). Move a rack to the center of the oven, and place the other one underneath.
• Roast to an internal temp of 135°F to 140°F: When juices start to drip from the roast, and it is browned on the outside, check the roast's internal temperature with a meat thermometer. Remove the roast from the oven when the internal temperature of the roast is 135°F to 140°F (for medium rare meat).

PERFECT POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
• Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
• Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
• If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
• With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
• Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
• Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
• When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
• Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
• Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.

PERFECT BONELESS BEEF ROASTS

Steps:

• NOTE: The success of this recipe will depend upon how accurate the temperature of your oven is and how will it retains heat. Adjust cooking time +/- according to your individual oven.
• IMPORTANT: Determine the EXACT weight of the roast from the meat wrapper. Weight will determine how long to cook the roast. If you have a probe meat thermometer with an alarm, I recommend using it.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Cut all visible fat from the outside of the meat. Rub the entire outside of the roast with salt, pepper, or seasonings of your choice, such as thyme, garlic powder, etc. (If using a probe thermometer insert it into center of the meat. Set the temperature to your desired degree of doneness and set the alarm.).
• Place roast in roasting pan and bake according to the following Cooking Chart:.
• RARE - 3 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE/RARE - 3 1/4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM RARE - 3 1/2 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM - 4 minutes per pound.
• MEDIUM WELL - 4 1/2 minutes per pound.
• WELL DONE - not recommended with this method.
• Set your oven timer for the cooking time calculated from the Cooking Chart above.
• When cook time is completed, TURN THE OVEN OFF! DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR AT LEAST 1-1/2 HOURS or until the probe alarm signals desired temperature has been reached. After removing roast from oven, tent with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• To reserve meat juices, slice rare/medium rare roasts on a platter where juices can collect. Pour juices into roasting pan, scraping loose any pan drippings, and pour au jus over the roast.
• OPTIONAL ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS: Slice mushrooms and onions. In frying pan coated with non-stick cooking spray, saute mushrooms and onions until limp and tender. Add 2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and set aside.
• FOR GRAVY: For each cup of au jus (beef liquid), make a slurry by stirring 1-1/2 to 2 tsp of cornstarch into 1 tbs water. Bring au jus to a slow boil (adding 1 cup beef broth, cooked mushrooms and onions w/vinegar if using optional ingredients); stirring constantly. Gradually add the slurry to the boiling au jus. Cook on medium, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens - about 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve.

FOOLPROOF RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Allow roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder in a small cup. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan so that the fatty side is up and the rib side is on the bottom. Rub the seasoning onto the roast.
• Roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Turn the oven off and leave the roast inside. Do not open the door. Leave it in there for 3 hours. 30 to 40 minutes before serving, turn the oven back on at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) to reheat the roast. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving into servings.

BEEF POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Heat a heavy Dutch oven on top of the stove over medium high heat. Add oil, and sear meat in the center of the pan for 4 minutes. Turn meat over with tongs; sear all sides for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove meat from pan. Arrange onion, garlic, and 1 bay leaf in the bottom of the pan, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return meat to pan, place remaining bay leaf on top of meat, and cover.
• Cook in the oven for 30 minutes at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Reduce the heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C), and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Remove roast to a platter to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice, and top with onions and gravy.
