Pot Roast Sandwich Recipes

SAVORY POT ROAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
• Lightly coat one side of each of the 16 slices of bread with Rosemary Butter. Set aside. Slice chilled Pot Roast into finger-width slices using a sharp non-serrated knife. Set to the side.
• Divide Pot Roast into 8 equal portions on a large cookie sheet. Top each portion of Pot Roast with 1/4 cup Caramelized Onions. Remove reserved Pot Roast liquid from fridge, then skim the fat from the top into a shallow dish. (Return remaining liquid to fridge and save for a soup or gravy base.) Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 to 2 tablespoons Pot Roast fat to the pan. When melted, add the pot roast/onion portions, two at a time, to the skillet. Cook, undisturbed, pot roast-side down, until lightly crispy and browned, about 3 minutes. Flip over and cook until onions are heated through lightly browned, an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a second cookie sheet and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining portions.
• Wipe out the nonstick skillet and return to medium heat. Add bread, buttered-side down, 2 slices at a time. Spread 2 tablespoons Horseradish Sauce on the exposed sides of the bread. Divide 2 ounces cheese between the two slices as you would for a grilled cheese sandwich. Cook until bread is browned and lightly toasted and cheese has begun to melt, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and place on a cutting board. Place 1/4 cup arugula on one side of the bread. Remove one portion of the pot roast/onion from the oven and place on top. Close sandwich. Cut in half and enjoy! Repeat process with remaining ingredients to make 7 more sandwiches.
• Place butter, rosemary, salt and white pepper in a small bowl and whisk together with a fork until fully combined. Leave out so that it will remain soft for spreading on bread for sandwiches.
• For the pot roast rub: Put granulated garlic, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper and tarragon in a mason jar and shake until blended. (Unused rub may be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 month.)
• For the pot roast: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add carrots, celery, onion, garlic and butter to a large roasting pan. Roast until butter is fully melted, about 5 minutes, then stir veg to coat with butter and return to oven. Roast until browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees F.
• Coat all sides of pot roast with rub, spanking it into the meat to make sure it properly adheres and helps form a crust. Set to the side. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat until beginning to sizzle but not smoking. Sear pot roast on all sides until lightly browned. Take your time with this step, as it is important to build flavor. Transfer roast to pan with prepared vegetables. Arrange vegetables so half are below roast and half are on top. Lay sprigs of rosemary on top of roast. Slowly pour wine over top of roast so as not to displace vegetables and herbs. Scrape remnants of skillet on top of roast. Add just enough beef stock to submerge roast halfway in liquid. Cover pan first with plastic wrap, then top with heavy-duty foil and seal all edges to keep moisture in. (At this low a temp, plastic wrap will not melt and is perfectly safe.)
• Place back in oven and cook, undisturbed, for 6 hours. Remove from oven and carefully pull back corner of plastic wrap and foil to let steam release. Remove pot roast from pan and place on a board to rest. Roast should be fork-tender at this point. Using a fine sieve, strain solids from remaining liquid in roasting pan. Discard solids and reserve liquid. Chill roast for at least 1 hour or up to overnight. Pot roast may be made one day ahead of time so that it may be easily sliced for sandwiches.
• Add the olive oil or butter to a large nonstick skillet and let melt over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onions and use a wooden spoon to lightly coat with melted fat. Spread the onions out in a fairly uniform layer and reduce the heat to medium to medium-low, depending on the strength of your stovetop. The idea is to cook the onions slow and fairly low so that the natural sugar in the onions will release and create a caramelization instead of a standard saute. This will develop a sweet flavor which will contrast beautifully with the other ingredients in the sandwich. This portion takes patience but not a ton of active work. After about 10 minutes, sprinkle salt over onions and stir. Continue cooking, stirring regularly, until the onions are soft and browned completely, about an hour more. (You are looking for the color of a caramel apple, hence the name of the onions.) If you find the onions are sticking, it is perfectly fine to add a bit of water or a little bit more oil or butter so as to prevent burning. Remove from stove and transfer to a small bowl.
• Whisk together mayonnaise, horseradish, lemon juice, white pepper, salt and black pepper in a small bowl.

"DA BEEF" ITALIAN POT ROAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• Make the pot roast: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Liberally sprinkle the entire beef roast with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the roast and cook until browned and caramelized all over, 3 to 4 minutes per side (reduce the heat if the fat begins to smoke). Transfer to a plate and reduce the heat to medium.
• Add the onion to the pot and sauté, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes and sauté until fragrant, another minute. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Deglaze with the red wine and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the beef stock and thyme and bring to a simmer. Adjust the seasoning of the jus. Return the beef roast to the pot along with any accumulated juices. Cover, place in the oven and cook, turning the roast every 30 minutes, until very tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and tent with foil. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Strain the jus through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl and return to the pot. Bring to a simmer and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Once the meat is cooled a bit, pull it apart into smaller chunks; return to the jus and reserve until ready to build the sandwiches.
• Meanwhile, cook the peppers: Toss the green bell pepper strips with the olive oil, granulated garlic and some salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring halfway through, until soft, about 20 minutes.
• Build the sandwiches: Place some beef on each hoagie roll, then top with the peppers and some giardiniera. Pour the warm jus into a bowl. Take each hoagie and quickly dunk it in the jus. Wrap in parchment for at least a minute to let the juices "settle," then eat away!

POT ROAST SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season the meat well with salt and pepper and dust with the flour, shaking off any excess. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot with an oven-proof lid over medium-high heat.

• Remove the meat and set it aside. Strain the sauce through a large wire mesh strainer or colander, discarding the solids. Return the sauce to the pot over medium-high heat. Cook until the sauce reduces to 2 cups, about 25 minutes. Finish the sauce by adding a little hot sauce and a squeeze of lemon to clean up the flavor Season with salt to taste.
• Shred the roast using 2 forks and return it to the sauce, tossing to coat. Slice the focaccia in half horizontally to make a giant sandwich. Place the meat on the bottom half of the focaccia, top with the chow-chow and place the remaining piece of focaccia on top. Skewer with toothpicks and then cut into pieces.

• For the pot-roast sandwich:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• On a cutting board, cut the flat bottom round into 3-inch pieces. Season cut meat on both sides with kosher salt and black pepper. Add the meat to a lightly oiled griddle and brown well on both sides. Transfer the browned meat in a deep roasting pan. Add the chopped carrots, celery and onions around meat along with the bay leaves and fresh thyme. Pour in the water, cover with foil, and put into the oven for 3 hours. Remove the roasting pan from the oven and discard the foil. Remove the meat to a clean sheet pan and allow to cool slightly. Strain the liquid into a clean container and store in the refrigerator for future use. When the pot roast is cool enough to handle use clean latex gloves to shred the pot roast. Put the shredded meat into portion-size bags each weighing 5 ounces.
• Plating the pot roast sandwich: Heat the pot roast liquid in a small pot over low heat.
• For each serving:
• Split and butter an old fashioned bun and warm it on the griddle for about 1 minute. On an oval platter put 3 ounces of coleslaw at the 3:00 position with a pickle slice. Now put the lightly browned old fashioned bun at the 12:00 and 6:00 position. Place 3 ounces of French fries into the deep-fat fryer and cook until they are a light brown.
