Uncle Bills Prime Of Beef Roast Recipes

THE PERFECT PRIME-RIB BEEF ROAST

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200°c.
• Rub the beef with the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper, ensuring the meat is seasoned all over.
• Place the vegetables and herbs in a large roasting tray and place the beef on top.
• Cover with foil and place in the oven.
• Roast for 20 minutes at 200°c then turn the heat down to 150°c and roast for 20 minutes per 500g for medium rare beef and 25 per 200°c for medium rare - medium beef. I wouldn't suggest cooking it for longer than that as that could result in dry, bland meat. I have become a slave to my meat thermometer (which is the most precise way to ensure your meat is done the way you like it) and removed the beef from the oven when the interior temperature reached 55-60°c (around 130-140°F). This along with the 30 minutes resting time allowed for the perfect almost medium interior I was after.
• Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking for the fat to become beautifully golden brown and crisp.
• Remove the beef from the oven then place on a large plate/board and cover with foil.
• Allow the beef to rest for at least 30 minutes before carving. At this stage you can make the gravy with all the delicious juices left in the roasting pan.
• Carving is easiest when you remove the entire hunk of meat from the bones, which is relatively easy with a sharp knife.
• Carve the meat into thin slices and serve with gravy and side dishes of your choice.

THE BEST PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Pat the skin of the roast completely dry and place on a cutting board, fat-side up. Use a paring knife to make small slits all over the fat, and then stud the meat with the garlic slices. Sprinkle all over with the salt and pepper, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Unwrap the roast and place fat-side up on a rack set in a roasting pan.
• Roast the meat until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 120 degrees F, about 4 hours. Remove from the oven and let sit for 1 hour. The temperature will continue to rise another 10 to 14 degrees as it sits.
• Turn the oven to 500 degrees F. Place the roast back in the oven and bake until the fatty skin starts to crisp up and turn golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let rest another 30 minutes before transferring to a cutting board for slicing.

UNCLE BILL'S BEEF ROAST IN A SLOW COOKER

Steps:

• Heat olive oil on medium-high heat in a heavy bottom frying pan.
• Sear and brown roast on all sides.
• Let roast cook for a few minutes.
• Using a narrow sharp paring knife, punch holes in the roast at various intervals to about 1 1/2 inches in depth.
• Stuff each hole with one piece of bacon and one piece of garlic, push down into the cut.
• Place roast in a slow cooker set on low heat.
• Add water, bits and pieces mushrooms including liquid, and mushroom soup.
• Sprinkle onion soup mix over the roast.
• Now add salt, pepper.
• Remove the outer skin from the onions and add to the crock pot.
• Add baby carrots, whole potatoes, fresh mushrooms and red wine.
• Cover and cook on low heat for 5 hours, turning the roast at least 4 times during cooking.
• At the end of 5 hours, add celery, cover and continue to cook until the time reaches 6 hours.
• Cut or slice the beef and serve with veggies and the tasty gravy that is cooked.
• A nice piece of Italian bread or sour dough bread goes very nicely to dip into the gravy.

PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Liberally season the prime rib with the salt and some pepper and refrigerate overnight.
• An hour before cooking, remove the roast from the refrigerator to allow it to come to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the reserved ribs in a roasting pan bowed-side up (the ribs will be acting as the roasting rack). Scatter any fat and meat trimmings in the pan around the bones. Roast the bones and trimmings for about 30 minutes, or until the fat starts to render.
• Remove the pan from the oven, put the rosemary sprigs on top of the bones, then top with the prime rib. Put the smashed garlic in the bottom of the pan with the trimmings. Baste the beef with the fat drippings and return the pan to the oven.
• Cook for 30 minutes and then baste the roast again.
• Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the meat is medium rare (an internal temperature of 125 degrees F to 130 degrees F), about 1 hour, 15 minutes, basting the roast every 30 minutes until it is done. Keep in mind that the roast will continue to cook while resting.
• Remove the roast from the oven and put it on a cutting board to rest, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Slice the prime rib to the desired thickness and garnish with the arugula and olive oil.
