Time 4h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 to 4 pound rump or chuck beef roast
1 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 large carrot, diced (about 1 cup)
1 large celery stalk, diced (about 1 cup)
1 medium red onion, diced (1 to 1 1/2 cups)
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
3 cups medium-bodied Italian red wine (we used a Barbera)
1 28-ounce can Italian plum tomatoes, put through a food mill to remove the seeds

Steps:

  • Deglaze the pan with wine, return meat to the pan: Add 1 cup of the wine and stir quickly, lifting up the richly browned caramelized vegetables that stick to the bottom of the pan. When the wine is almost all evaporated and thickly coats the vegetables, return the meat to the pan and turn it over a few times to coat it with the savory base.
  • Turn off the heat and let the roast sit in its juices for an hour: (You can also put the pot into a 300°F oven and turn the roast every hour.)
  • Remove meat, reduce sauce: Remove the meat from the pot and place it on a cutting board, covered loosely with aluminum foil. If the sauce is too thin, bring it to a fast boil and reduce it until it has a medium-thick consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Cut the meat into thick slices: (it will probably fall apart), and place on warm serving dishes. Spoon the sauce over the meat and serve hot. Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, or polenta.

Gingersnap Pot Roast image

A pot roast in the winter is such a comforting dinner and this gingersnap pot roast is delicious. Browning the sides lock in the juices and it picks up the onion, vinegar and ketchup flavors it cooks in. The gravy is fantastic.

Categories     Roasts

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lb piece of pot roast, I use whatever is on sale
2 c all-purpose flour, enough to roll meat in
salt and pepper, to taste
3 Tbsp oil, enough in bottom of large pot to brown meat in
2 medium onions, chopped and held on side
1 c ketchup
2 Tbsp brown sugar
3/4 c white vinegar
1 bag(s) gingersnap cookies

Steps:

  • 1. Roll meat in flour.
  • 2. Brown on all sides in a pot (not Teflon coated pot).
  • 3. When halfway done add onions and continue to brown. ***Please use care while doing this step as I have watched my mom turning the meat over and it fell off the fork and splashed the oil on her face***
  • 4. Once all browned, cover with "BOILING" water, (if you add cold water it will make the meat tough).
  • 5. Add 3/4 cup white vinegar, 2 Tbsp brown sugar, and 1 cup ketchup.
  • 6. Let meat simmer for 2-3 hours.
  • 7. Remove meat, strain onions out of water and throw out. ***I skim the onions out so as we don't have to dirty another pot to collect the juice use your own judgement***
  • 8. Put liquid back into pot.
  • 9. Add half the box of the gingersnap cookies. More can be added until you get the proper consistency. Remember, more water means more gingersnaps to make it thicker. I usually throw in at least one package depending on how much water there is. They can be crushed or whole as they will dissolve after a few minutes. If it's too thick, add 1/4 cup of water at a time until you have your desired consistency of gravy.
  • 10. Once gravy thickens up, put the meat back in the sauce and let it sit for another 30 minutes.
  • 11. Side dish with this we have mashed potatoes and green beans. I love the gravy.

PRESSURE COOKER SHORT RIBS IN PLUM SAUCE



Pressure Cooker Short Ribs in Plum Sauce image

A pressure cooker can take an afternoon's project and turn it into a dinner-in-an-hour affair. Case in point: These short ribs, adapted from the cookbook author Lorna Sass, would have required a few hours on the stove. Here they can be made in a fraction of the time.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 pounds meaty short ribs, excess fat removed
1 1/2 cups chicken or beef broth
1 cup coarsely chopped leeks (green parts included) or onions
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce
1 1/4 cups tightly packed pitted prunes
4 to 6 large Yukon Gold potatoes, washed and left whole
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions, for garnish

Steps:

  • Trim excess surface fat from the ribs. In a 6-quart or larger pressure cooker, combine broth, leeks and vinegar. Pour 2 tablespoons of soy sauce onto a large plate, and turn the meat in it to coat thoroughly.
  • Place meat in the cooker with any unabsorbed soy sauce. Scatter prunes around the sides; distribute the potatoes on top. Lock lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce heat just enough to maintain high pressure. Cook for 30 minutes. Turn off heat and allow pressure to decrease naturally, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove lid, tilting it away from you to allow the steam to escape. Remove potatoes, and set aside. The ribs should be fork tender. If not, simmer with lid ajar until done. Transfer meat to a platter.
  • Strain the broth, and degrease in a fat separator or refrigerate overnight. Discard congealed fat. Return broth and solids to the cooker. To thicken the sauce and intensify the taste, boil over high heat, stirring often, until syrupy, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add more vinegar, if needed, to balance the sweetness and intensify the flavors. Stir in ginger to taste. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Quarter the potatoes, and return them and the meat to the cooker to reheat and coat with sauce. Transfer to a platter or individual plates, and garnish with scallions. Serve any extra sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, and brisket are all good choices for pot roast. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when braised.
  • Brown the beef before braising: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to seal in the juices.
  • Use a good quality braising liquid: The braising liquid is what gives the pot roast its flavor. Use a flavorful liquid such as beef broth, red wine, or ginger-plum sauce.
  • Cook the pot roast low and slow: Pot roast should be cooked on low heat for a long period of time. This allows the meat to become tender and the flavors to develop.
  • Add vegetables to the pot roast: Vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions can be added to the pot roast. This adds flavor and nutrients to the dish.
  • Serve the pot roast with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles: Pot roast is a hearty dish that can be served with a variety of side dishes.

Conclusion:

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and always delicious. By following these tips, you can make a pot roast that is tender, flavorful, and sure to please everyone at the table.
