Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 3- to 5-pound chuck roast
2 or 3 tablespoons olive oil
2 whole onions, peeled and halved
6 to 8 whole carrots, unpeeled, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup red wine, optional
3 cups beef broth
2 or 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 or 3 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Generously salt and pepper the chuck roast.
  • Heat the olive oil in large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the halved onions to the pot, browning them on both sides. Remove the onions to a plate.
  • Throw the carrots into the same very hot pot and toss them around a bit until slightly browned, about a minute or so. Reserve the carrots with the onions.
  • If needed, add a bit more olive oil to the very hot pot. Place the meat in the pot and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate.
  • With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom with a whisk. Place the roast back into the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway.
  • Add in the onions and the carrots, along with the fresh herbs.
  • Put the lid on, then roast for 3 hours for a 3-pound roast. For a 4 to 5-pound roast, plan on 4 hours. The roast is ready when it's fall-apart tender.

Beef Roast-cooked through (I used a top round or bottom round roast)

Bread, buns, or crackers to serve

Steps:

  • Cut the beef into ½ to 1 inch cubes.
  • Grind the meat in a meat grinder to a fine consistency.
  • In a bowl, combine the beef, mayonnaise, and relish.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Serve on sandwich buns or on crackers.
  • *For the beef, I used a top round roast that had been cooked in a slow-cooker until cooked through. I used only about half of the roast since that is what I had as leftovers.

POT-ROAST SALAD



Pot-Roast Salad image

Ease your way into the workweek with this meal made from leftover pot roast.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Beef Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
3/4 pound green beans
2 tablespoons wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 head, Boston lettuce
Leftover Pot Roast, thinly sliced
1/4 red onion

Steps:

  • In boiling salted water, cook beans until tender, 8 minutes. Run under cold water to stop the cooking. In small bowl, whisk vinegar, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Slowly add oil, whisking until emulsified. Stir in parsley.
  • Toss lettuce, torn, with one-third of the dressing. Divide among 4 plates.
  • Toss beans with another third dressing; add to plates.
  • Toss pot roast slices and onion in remaining dressing, and mound on top of plates.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, rump roast, and brisket are all good choices for pot roast salad. Look for a roast that has good marbling, as this will help to keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef in a pan over medium-high heat before cooking it in the slow cooker will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions are all classic pot roast vegetables, but you can also add other vegetables that you like, such as parsnips, turnips, or rutabagas.
  • Season the pot roast well: Be generous with the salt and pepper, and add other herbs and spices to taste. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme are all good choices.
  • Cook the pot roast on low for 8-10 hours: This will allow the meat to become tender and fall apart easily.
  • Shred the beef before serving: Once the pot roast is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. You can then add the shredded beef to the salad.

Conclusion:

Pot roast salad 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 pot roast. With a few simple tips, you can make a pot roast salad that is sure to please everyone at your table.
