COLA-BRAISED POT ROAST

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 1/2 pound boneless chuck roast
3 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups beef stock or low-sodium canned beef broth
12 ounces cola soda
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 1/2 tablespoons flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Season the roast well on all sides with 2 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper. On a cutting board combine the remaining salt, minced garlic and rosemary and, using the side of a knife, mash against the board repeatedly to form a paste. Using a small paring knife, make thin slits into the roast on all sides, about 2 inches apart, and fill the holes with the garlic-rosemary paste. Repeat until you have used all of the paste.
  • Heat a Dutch oven over high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast and cook until very well browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the beef stock and cola and bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. Add the tomato paste and stir to blend. The liquid should be about 1/2 way up the sides of the roast. Cover the Dutch oven, place in oven, and roast until the meat is fork-tender, about 3 1/2 hours, turning the meat every hour and adding extra water if necessary to keep the liquid level at about 1/3 up the sides of the roast.
  • When the meat is fork-tender, remove the roast from the oven and carefully transfer the roast to a serving platter. Cover loosely to keep warm.
  • Skim off as much of the fat from the surface of the cooking liquid as possible. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the fat in a small bowl and add the flour. Stir to make a smooth paste. Add 1/2 cup of the hot cooking liquid to the bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk this mixture into the hot cooking liquid that remains in the Dutch oven and place over high heat on the stovetop. Cook, whisking frequently, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and any floury taste is gone. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
  • Serve the roast with the hot gravy.

GARLIC-STUDDED POT ROAST



Garlic-Studded Pot Roast image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (3 to 3 1/2-pound) boneless beef chuck roast
10 to 12 large cloves garlic, peeled and cut in 1/2 lengthwise
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3/4 cup water, plus more if necessary
Fresh chopped thyme leaves and parsley, for garnish
Fresh chopped thyme leaves and parsley, for garnish
Roasted Vegetables, recipe follows
2 turnips, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
12 red pearl onions
2 beets, cut into 1-inch pieces
Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Using the tip of a sharp paring knife, make 20 to 24 evenly spaced small slits about 1 1/2-inches deep all over the pot roast. Using your fingers, insert the garlic cloves as deep into the meat as possible. Season the roast evenly on all sides with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat a Dutch oven over high heat. Add the oil and, when very hot, use the meat fork to add the roast. Sear on all sides until very well browned, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Don't be afraid to let the roast get very brown -- this is where a lot of the flavor comes from. When the roast is evenly browned on all sides, add the water and stir to loosen the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Cover the Dutch oven, reduce the heat to low/medium-low and cook the roast until it is very tender, about 3 hours, turning two or three times during the entire cooking time. Check occasionally to make sure that you always have 1-inch or so of liquid on the bottom of the pan. If necessary, add more water.
  • When the roast is very tender, transfer to a serving platter and slice or pull meat apart into serving pieces. Reduce the pan juices slightly, if desired, and serve drizzled over the top of the roast. Garnish with fresh thyme and parsley.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place all vegetables except the beets in a roasting pan. Place beets in a separate roasting pan. Drizzle all vegetables with extra-virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • Place in oven and roast for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and carmelized.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or brisket are ideal for pot roast as they have good marbling and will become tender when braised.
  • Brown the beef before braising: This step adds flavor and color to the pot roast.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and color to the dish. Common vegetables used in pot roast include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes.
  • Add a flavorful liquid: Beef broth, red wine, or even cola can be used to braise the pot roast.
  • Season the pot roast well: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good options.
  • Cook the pot roast on low heat for a long time: This will allow the collagen in the beef to break down and make the meat tender.
  • Let the pot roast rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
