MOM'S POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Sear the meat all over, about 2 minutes per each side.
• Move the meat to the side (or remove it from the pot altogether if necessary), add the celery, carrot and onion and brown the vegetables, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for a minute or 2 longer. Add the wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add the tomatoes, water and bay leaves (and the meat if you removed it). Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning. Add more salt if necessary. Cover the pot and bake, basting the meat occasionally, until tender, about 3 hours.
• About 20 minutes before the meat is tender, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally. Add the shells, give it a stir and cook until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta.
• To serve, you can pull the meat apart with a couple of forks right in the pot at the table. Serve with the pasta, plenty of sauce and vegetables, tossing them all together.

ROAST WITH ROOT VEGETABLES AND HERBS

Steps:

• Add the chicken stock to the pan and continue to roast to the desired tenderness and temperature, 165 to 190 degrees F for brisket. (See Cook's Note.) If you do racks or a leg of lamb, 135 degrees F and up is desired. For a pork rack or loin, cook to 145 degrees F and up. Remove the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
• While the meat is resting, stir the butter into the liquid in the pan with a splash of vinegar. Slice the meat and serve over the vegetables. Top with the sauce.

MICHAEL SYMON'S EYE OF ROUND ROAST RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• Liberally season the eye round roast with salt and pepper and refrigerate overnight. An hour before cooking, remove the roast form the refrigerator to allow to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Rub the roast with olive oil and drizzle olive oil in the bottom of the roasting pan. Add the garlic and rosemary to the pan and place the roast on top. Cook for 30 minutes and then baste the roast with any pan drippings. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the meat is medium-rare (an internal temperature of 125-130 degrees F), about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Keep 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 roast to the desired thickness and serve.

POT ROAST

Steps:

• Sprinkle the meat liberally with the celery seeds, salt and pepper up to 1 day in advance. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 45 minutes to 1 hour before cooking to take the chill off it. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil, followed by the brisket. Sear the meat until golden brown and crusty, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Set aside.
• Add the celery, carrots and onions to the Dutch oven, along with a pinch of salt. Brown the vegetables, about 3 minutes, then add the garlic and thyme and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in the tomato paste and toast it until it's rust colored, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom. Add the meat back in, then add enough stock to cover the roast halfway. Bring the liquid to a simmer and taste for seasoning, adding more salt if necessary. Cover and roast in the oven, basting the meat occasionally, until the roast is tender, 3 to 4 hours.
• If you're serving individual plates, the meat can be removed to a cutting board and sliced. Or, the meat can be pulled apart with a couple of forks right in the pot at the table and served with plenty of the sauce and vegetables.

MICHAEL SYMON'S BRAISED POT ROAST

Steps:

• Season the roast liberally with salt, about 2 tablespoons, and refrigerate overnight.
• Pull the meat out an hour before cooking to take the chill off of it. In a large Dutch oven, render the bacon until slightly crispy. Remove the bacon and reserve. Dry off the meat with a paper towel and begin to brown it in that same pan for 2 minutes per side - remove and set aside.
• Add the carrots, shallot, and garlic with a pinch of salt and sweat for 4 minutes, or until you get a slight caramelization and the vegetables start to release their aromas. Add the coriander and bay leaves, and continue to sweat for 1 minute.
• Deglaze the pan with the cider, scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the beer, and thyme and bring to a simmer. Add the beef back in, along with the bacon and enough of the stock to cover the roast, approximately 8 Celsius Top with a lid, and place it in a 350 degree oven. Cook for 3-4 hours or until tender. Remove from the oven and skim any excess fat.
• Gently remove the meat to a platter. Spoon the vegetables on top and garnish with the torn mint, and lemon zest.

TENDER EYE OF ROUND ROAST

Steps:

• Combine the oil, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic into a paste, then rub all over the roast. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour. Forty minutes into the hour, pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, place two sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil large enough to cover the roast. Place the roast on the foil sheets and transfer everything to the oven. Roast for 6 minutes per pound.
• Remove from the oven. Fold up the foil so it wraps the roast then return it to the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 170 degrees F and roast for one hour. After an hour, check the internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer: 120-125 degrees F will yield a rare center, 130-140 degrees F will yield a medium-rare center, and 140-150 degrees F will yield a medium center.
• When the roast is finished, remove it and set it on a cutting board to rest. Transfer any drippings from the roast into a saucepan, then combine with the red wine and beef broth. Bring to a simmer over med-high heat and reduce by 1/4; reduce heat to medium-low and whisk in the cubes of butter one at a time until incorporated into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
• Slice the roast into 1/2 inch thick slices and serve with the pan sauce poured on top.
