GRANDPA'S BRAISED BEEF

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 5h5m

Yield 5 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

Extra-virgin olive oil, for sauteing and drizzling
4 onions, very thinly sliced
6 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
3 pounds chuck, bottom round or top sirloin steak
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 to 5 starchy potatoes
1 (32-ounce) can Italian tomatoes, sliced or roughly crushed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves picked and finely chopped
Parmigiano-Reggiano, for grating
A few fresh basil leaves, torn
1 loaf ciabatta, for serving

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat with a thin layer of extra-virgin olive oil. Add the onions, and garlic to the hot oil and sweat them until very soft and very light caramel in color, 20 to 30 minutes. Turn off the heat and reserve.
Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of oil to the pan. Pat the meat dry and season very liberally with salt and pepper. Brown the meat to a deep brown all over, 12 to 15 minutes.
Peel the potatoes and very thinly slice them lengthwise into planks. Slice the tomatoes working over a bowl to catch their juices.
Arrange 1/2 the onions over top of the meat, season with salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon thyme. Arrange 1/2 the potatoes over the onions and dress the potatoes with a liberal drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon, salt, pepper, rosemary, and a handful freshly grated cheese. Top the potatoes with 1/2 the tomatoes and their juices, and season with salt and pepper. Scatter a few leaves of torn basil. Repeat the layers. Do not add basil to the top layer of tomatoes.
Cover the pan and roast the meat in the oven until very tender, 4 hours. Cool and store for make-ahead meal.
To reheat: Reheat, covered, in a preheated 325 degree F oven until warmed through, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Take off the lid of the pot, drizzle the top of the meat with oil, sprinkle with cheese, and broil to lightly crust the top. Cut down through the layers of the potatoes, tomatoes, and onions to portion the meat, serve in shallow bowls with crusty bread and pan juices.

BRAISED CHUCK STEAK

Braised Chuck Steak image

Categories Steak

Time 2h20m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

3 lbs chuck steaks
flour, enough for dredging (about 2/3 c.})
1/4 cup Butter Flavor Crisco
seasoning salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 medium Spanish onion, sliced
1/2 cup water (or beef broth)

Steps:

Cut the meat into about 1 inch strips.
Dredge meat in the flour, shaking off the excess.
In a dutch oven, melt shortening over med.-high heat (WATCH CAREFULLY -- if it smokes, it's too hot).
Brown meat on all sides -- do in batches, if need be).
Season to taste.
Drain fat from dutch oven & return the meat.
Place sliced on over the meat & then add the water.
Cover & simmer on LOW heat for 2 to 2½ hours OR place in a 325° for the same amount of time.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use a chuck steak that is at least 1 inch thick.
Browning the steak before braising it adds depth of flavor.
Use a good quality red wine for the braising liquid. A dry red wine will give the steak a more robust flavor, while a sweeter red wine will give it a more mellow flavor.
Add plenty of vegetables to the braising liquid. This will help to create a flavorful sauce and also add nutrients to the dish.
Cook the steak until it is fall-apart tender. This will usually take at least 2 hours, but may take longer depending on the thickness of the steak.

Conclusion:

Braised chuck steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover steak. The steak is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with red wine, beef broth, and vegetables. The result is a tender and juicy steak that is sure to please everyone at the table.
