Dutch Oven Rump Roast Recipes

DUTCH OVEN RUMP ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 Degrees while doing the rest of the prep.
• Slice 5 or 6 evenly half inch deep slits into the top of the beef.
• Shove the minced garlic into the slots. It will barely fit, but keep trying to get in in there, and just leave the rest evenly on top.
• Mix the salt and pepper together, and then rub that into the sides, then pour the leavings on top of the roast.
• Pour about a tablespoon of oil center of dutch oven.
• Place roast in dutch oven on top of oil. Place in the preheated oven without the lid for 15 minute to sear the beef.
• While roast roast is searing, cut up your veg. as directed above.
• Turn down heat to 325 degrees wait 5 more minutes to let metal and beef cool and rest a touch.
• Gently dribble about 1 inch of water into dutch oven. It will spit and splatter at first, but do it slowly.
• Place potatoes in first around the beef.
• place carrots in next.
• then place broccoli.
• and finally the onions which should be so high you have to cover the beef with them to get them all in.
• finally lay the 2 to 4 strips of bacon criscrossed on top of that so it drips down into the stew.
• Now pour in 1/2 cup Olive Oil drizzled over the top.
• pour in the bottle of beer.
• add water until it almost but not quite covers the top of the beef.
• Put lid on dutch oven.
• Set timer for 2 hours.
• When kitchen starts to smell awesome, check under the lid. It's done when the bacon looks mostly cooked but not crispy and when the onions look like they've wilted and getting a bit clear on the outside.

PERFECT RUMP ROAST

Steps:

• DO NOT USE A GLASS PAN FOR THIS RECIPE.
• Pre-Heat the oven to 500 degrees.
• Prep the roast by making 4-5 slits in the roast and filling the holes with salt, pepper and 1/2 of a clove of Garlic.
• Now Salt and Pepper the rest of the roast.
• Put the Roast in the oven and sear for 20 minutes.
• Then add the water, the chopped onion and reduce the temperature to 275 degrees.
• Cook for 20 minutes per lb. I like mine rare so that is what you will get if you cook for this period of time.

SAVORY SEASONED RUMP ROAST

Steps:

• 1. For The Rub: In a small bowl, measure and mix thorougly, all spices and herbs together; set aside.
• 2. For The Dutch Oven: Make sure Dutch Oven has a good fitting lid. Adjust oven rack to accomodate Dutch Oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel, rinse and quarter onion; set aside. Scrape Carrots, rinse; set aside. Peel potatoes, rinse and cut in half. Place in bowl of cold water until ready for use.
• 3. If roast has a fat cap that is too thick, trim some of the fat away. Do not trim all of the fat cap away, you want a good amount of fat on roast. This is what is going to give a nice crust on roast and will add flavor along with the spices and herbs.
• 4. Sprinkle and rub the spice/herb mixture on all sides of roast
• 5. Place all carrots in single layer, on bottom of Dutch Oven. Place onion around edges, on top of carrots. Put spice rubbed roast on top of carrots, with the fat cap up.
• 6. Place Dutch Oven with roast, carrots and onion into preheated 400 degree oven for 30-45 minutes. This is to brown roast.
• 7. After 30-45 minutes, drain water from potatoes and place potatoes around roast, sprinkle top of roast, potatoes, onion and carrots with worchestershire sauce; place lid on Dutch Oven and return to oven, turn heat down to 325 degrees F., Roast until desired doneness is reached. I had a roast that was a little over 2 1/2 lbs and I roasted it for an additional 2 - 2 1/2 hrs. The meat was completely done, still juicy and tender enough to be cut with a fork. My carots were very thick, so I was not concerned about them burning on the bottom of the Dutch Oven. However, if they had been thin and spindley, I would have moved them around a bit, to keep them from burning.

PAULA'S DUTCH OVEN POT ROAST

Steps:

• Season roast with salt and pepper and coat with 2 tablespoons flour. Heat oil in a large 6- to 8-quart Dutch oven. Brown the roast on all sides in the hot oil, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in remaining flour to absorb remaining oil. Add beef broth, wine, onion, soup mix, marjoram, Worcestershire, and bay leaves. Add enough water to cover.
• Cover and simmer on medium-low heat until tender, about 2 hours. Add carrots and potatoes. Continue to cook until vegetables are tender, about 1 hour. If gravy is too thin, uncover and continue to simmer until liquid evaporates and gravy thickens, about 20 minutes more. Remove bay leaves from gravy when serving.

SUNDAY BEST ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Season the meat well with salt and pepper, then heat some oil in a Dutch oven or large pan and brown the bottom round roast on all sides. (Before searing, you can also rub the meat with things like crushed garlic, fresh, chopped herbs and ground spices to add flavor - whatever you prefer.) Cook the roast in a large cooking pot, Dutch oven or slow cooker. Place a layer of chopped onions beneath the meat. Add liquid to the pot until it reaches 1/3 of the way up the side meat (water, beef broth, vegetable stock, wine, beer or a combination). Cook on low heat for several hours. (Cooking on low heat for a long period of time melts the fat and breaks down the connective tissue inside the meat, leaving it flavorsome and fork tender. Cooking it on a high heat for a shorter period of time would result in a much tougher, drier piece of meat.) • Oven: If you're cooking the roast in a Dutch oven, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and slow roast the meat for 3 to 4 hours, depending on the weight. A 3 to 4 pound roast will typically take about 4 hours to cook - it's done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 to 170 degrees F. • Slow Cooker: If you're cooking the roast in a slow cooker, it will take about 7 hours on the low heat setting. • Stove top: If you're cooking the roast on the stove top, you should use a heavy-bottomed saucepan and slowly simmer the meat over a low heat. Make sure to cover the saucepan to keep the meat nice and moist. Add the vegetables toward the end of cooking time to ensure that they are perfectly cooked. Remove the meat and set it aside to rest for 10 to 15 minutes, covered with foil. Use a slotted spoon to remove the vegetables from the dish to a bowl. Pour the pan juices into a small saucepan and simmer over low heat. If you want to thicken the sauce, whisk with a flour/water mixture; if you want to thin the sauce, add some beef broth, wine or water. Cut the roast by slicing it or pulling it apart with a fork.
