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.

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.

ROAST BEEF SANDWICH SPREAD



Roast Beef Sandwich Spread image

This is great way to beat the heat and use up leftovers! My family (both sides) have made this staple for generations. I can still see my Grandma using the crank meat grinder to make hers. Mom always made hers with the grinding attachment on her mixer and I've done the same (have also made it with the food processor). While we used to make this when we had left over roast beef, I have used lesser cuts of roasts to make this spread which is a great inexpensive way to extend the food budget. We like to serve this on fresh soft bread with lettuce and tomato slices. *Note* Deli Roast Beef is NOT recommended for this recipe.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 6-8 sandwiches

1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Add remaining ingredients, with enough mayonnaise and pickle juice to taste and moisten as desired. Chill until ready to serve.
  • Serve as a spread for crackers or melba rounds for sandwiches.
  • You can toast the bread, if desired, and then spread with a little butter or mayonnaise. Add lettuce leaves; spread a layer of the beef spread over the lettuce, then top with sliced red onion.
  • Makes enough for 6 to 8 sandwiches.
  • Will keep in the refrigerator 5 days in tightly sealed bowl w/lid.
