THE BEST ROAST BEEF FOR SANDWICHES



The Best Roast Beef for Sandwiches image

The best cut of roast beef for sandwiches isn't necessarily the same as what you'd want hot from the oven. A hot roast demands plenty of marbling so that the rich fat can melt and baste the meat with its goodness. Roast beef sandwiches work better made from a leaner cut, preferably one with a mineral, earthy taste and a nice chew. A top loin roast is ideal. It's got plenty of brawny flavor, and all of the fat is on the surface, which you can easily trim off after the meat is cooked. Here, the beef is roasted low and slow to ensure rare, juicy meat. This said, if you want a more economical cut, use bottom, top or eye round here instead. Just adjust the roasting time if the cut is larger or smaller. As long as you pull the meat out of the oven when it reaches between 125 and 130 degrees, you'll get nicely rare meat. More sandwich recipes.

Categories     dinner, lunch, roasts, sandwiches, main course

Time 6h45m

Yield 6 to 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 small garlic cloves, grated
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves
2 1/2 pounds boneless beef top loin roast (leave the fat on top)
Extra-virgin olive oil, as needed

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, salt, pepper and rosemary. Spread the paste all over the meat. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • When you are ready to prepare the meat, remove it from the fridge and let stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Coat the roast lightly with olive oil. Transfer to the wire rack and roast for 75 to 95 minutes, until an instant thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 125 to 130 degrees for medium-rare.
  • Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let cool completely before carving (trim off the fat cap if you plan to serve it cold). The meat can be roasted three days ahead; cool completely before refrigerating.

Provided by Tufgrlz

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium cucumber
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 cup water
8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. onion salt
dash Worchestershire
1 loaf sliced
Paprika (garnish)

Steps:

  • Score cucumber lengthwisse with a fork (for aestetics) and slice thin. In medium bowl, combine vinegar and water, add cucumber slices; let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes. Drain well. Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, mayo, garlic powder, onion salt and Worchestershire.

Makes about 48 round tea sandwiches. You can also add a little dab of cream cheese/mayo on top with a baby shrimp.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: The type of bread you use will make a big difference in the final sandwich. For a classic sandwich, use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings, such as a baguette, ciabatta, or sourdough. For a lighter sandwich, use a softer bread, such as a white or wheat bread.
  • Don't be afraid to get creative with your fillings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to sandwich fillings. You can use anything from classic deli meats and cheeses to grilled vegetables, roasted meats, or even fruits and nuts. Get creative and experiment with different flavors and textures to find your favorite sandwich combinations.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your sandwich will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs. If you're using deli meats or cheeses, make sure they're fresh and not past their expiration date.
  • Season your sandwich well: Don't forget to season your sandwich with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices and herbs to taste. A little bit of garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika can go a long way.
  • Grill or toast your sandwich: Grilling or toasting your sandwich will help to seal in the flavors and make it even more delicious. If you're using a panini press, grill your sandwich until it's golden brown and crispy.

Conclusion:

Sandwiches are a delicious and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With so many different ingredients to choose from, the possibilities are endless. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, reach for a sandwich. You won't be disappointed.
