Sunday Best Garlic Roast Beef Recipes

SUNDAY GARLIC ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Toast the garlic, unpeeled, in a small skillet for 7-8 minutes over medium-high heat until they become spotty brown. Poke slits with a paring knife on all sides of the roast. Peel garlic and cut each clove into 3-4 slivers, then poke a sliver into each slit in the roast.
• Combine mashed garlic, thyme and salt in a small bowl. Rub into all surfaces of the roast. Transfer roast to a plate and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 4 hours.
• Combine Garlic Paste ingredients in small saucepan. Place over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble, then reduce to low and cook until garlic softens, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Strain oil into a small bowl. Remove thyme and bay and discard. Mash garlic cloves along with 1 tbsp of garlic oil, using a fork. Cover and refrigerate until roast is done resting.
• Preheat oven to 450°F Place an empty, dark-colored, non-stick roasting pan in the oven to heat as well.
• Remove roast from refrigerator and remove the rub with paper towels. Rub 2 tbsp garlic oil over surface of roast, then sprinkle with pepper. Place roast in roasting pan, fat side down. Roast 10-15 minutes, turning to brown all sides.
• Lower oven to 300°F Turn roast fat-side up, and smear garlic paste over the top. Roast 50-70 minutes, until internal temperature is 120°F.
• Remove roast to a carving board, tent with foil, and let rest 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place roasting pan over a burner set to medium heat. Add chicken broth and beef broth. Simmer down until reduced to 2 cups. Drain any accumulated juices from carving board into jus. Pour through a sieve before serving.
• Carve roast and serve with jus.

SUNDAY BEST ROAST BEEF WITH PAN GRAVY

Steps:

• Prepare the Roast: Adjust the rack to the bottom of the oven and heat to 425 degrees F. Blot any excess moisture from the roast, rub the Worcestershire sauce over the entire roast, and allow to marinate for 30 minutes, turning it twice.
• Combine the powdered garlic, onion powder, paprika, and 1 tablespoon coarse-ground pepper in a small bowl; sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the roast, pressing it, and let the roast stand for 20 to 30 minutes. Rub the meat with 2 teaspoons salt, place fat side up in a shallow roasting pan, and roast for 15 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to roast until the meat's internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F -- about 2 hours. Let the roast stand for 20 minutes before slicing.
• Prepare the Gravy: Skim any fat from the liquid that remains in the roasting pan. Whisk the flour and 1/2 cup water together to a paste; set aside.
• Scrape the drippings from the bottom of the roasting pan, add the beef broth, and stir over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer. While continuously whisking, add the flour paste and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 4 to 5 minutes. If needed, add a little water to thin the gravy. Add remaining salt and pepper; serve warm. (I thought the gravy was a little to thin and I didn't add the extra salt or pepper.).

• Bake until the internal temperature is 130 to 135 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Transfer the beef to a carving board and allow to rest for 30 minutes. Heat the roasting pan over medium heat and scrape up any browned bits. Pour any pan drippings onto a rimmed platter. Carve the beef into thick slices and transfer to the platter. Sprinkle with the parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.
