Emerils Pot Roast Recipes

GARLIC-STUDDED POT ROAST

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.

EMERIL'S COLA BRAISED POT ROAST WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season the roasts well on all sides with 2 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper each. Using a paring knife, make 10 small, thin slits total into each of the roasts on all sides, and fill the holes with the garlic cloves. Spread the rosemary amongst the 2 roasts and also stuff into the slits.
• Heat a saute-pan over medium-high heat and add two tablespoons of the olive oil. When the oil is hot, working one at a time, sear the roasts until very well browned on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
• Place the roasts in a roasting pan. Add the vegetables, the stock, and cola and tomato paste and blend well. The liquid should come about 1/2 way up the sides of the roast. Cover the pan with foil, place in the oven, and roast until the meat is falling apart-tender, about 3 to 4 hours, adding extra water as necessary to keep the liquid level at about 1/3 up the sides When the meat is fork-tender, remove the roast from the oven and carefully transfer the roast to a serving platter. Cover loosely to keep warm.
• Skim off as much of the fat from the surface of the cooking liquid as possible. Reserve 1/4 cup of the fat in a small bowl and add the flour. Stir to make a smooth paste. Slowly whisk this mixture into the hot cooking liquid that remains in the roasting pan and place over high heat on the stovetop. Cook, whisking frequently, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes or until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
