Best Roast Beef With Secret Sauce Recipes

ROAST BEEF WITH SECRET SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Mix first 3 ingredients until blended; spread onto cut sides of buns.
• Fill with remaining ingredients. Wrap individually in foil.
• Bake 5 min. or until 2% Milk Singles are melted.

MINI ROAST BEEF AND CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the secret sauce: Combine the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and hot sauce in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until just simmering, about 30 seconds. Keep warm, covered.
• For the sandwiches and Cheddar sauce: Lay the slider buns cut-side up on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until warmed through, about 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the processed cheese, Cheddar, milk and paprika in a small saucepan and warm over medium-high heat, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 2 minutes. Take off the heat and keep warm, covered.
• Spread both sides of the buns lightly with the secret sauce. Place a few slices of roast beef on each bottom half of the buns. Rewarm the cheese sauce if necessary, then spoon some of the cheese sauce on top of the meat. Cover with the top half of the buns and serve immediately.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt 5 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the shallots and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the wine, beef broth, thyme sprigs, salt, pepper and sugar, and bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced by about half.
• While the liquid is reducing, place the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter in a small bowl and soften in the microwave, if necessary (it should be soft but not melted). Add the flour and, using a small spoon, mix into a smooth paste.
• Once the wine mixture is reduced, reduce the heat to low and remove the thyme sprigs. Whisk the flour-butter paste, a teaspoonful at a time, into the simmering liquid, and simmer for a few minutes, until the sauce is thickened. Set aside. (The sauce can be made up to this point and refrigerated up to 3 days ahead of time.)
• Let the beef stand at room temperature for 1 hour before roasting. Set an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Season the beef all over with kosher salt and pepper. Heat the oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Cook, turning with tongs, until well browned on all but one side, about 10 minutes total. Turn the tenderloin so that the un-seared side is down, and transfer the skillet directly to the preheated oven. (If your pan isn't oven-proof, transfer the beef to a lightly oiled roasting pan.) Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 120°F-125° for medium rare, about 15 minutes, or until done to your liking (115°F-120°F for rare, 130°F-135°F for medium). Keep in mind that these temperatures account for the fact that the temperature will continue to rise about 5 degrees while the meat rests.
• Transfer the meat to a carving board (preferably with a well for collecting juices) and let it rest, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for 10 to 15 minutes. Place a dishtowel or oven mitt over the handle of the roasting pan to remind yourself that it's hot.
• Meanwhile, carefully discard the fat from the roasting pan (remember that the handle is hot!). Set the pan on the stovetop and add the ¼ cup of beef broth. Bring the broth to a boil, using a wooden spoon to scrape the fond, or brown bits, from the bottom of the pan. Add the flavorful broth to the red wine sauce, and then bring the sauce to a simmer.
• Carve the tenderloin into ⅓-inch-thick slices. Serve the beef, passing the red wine sauce at the table.
