Beer Brown Sugar Marinated Roast Recipes

BEER BRISKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Season the beef brisket with salt, and place in a baking dish. Cover the entire roast with onion slices. In a medium bowl, mix together the beer, brown sugar, beef bouillon, pepper, garlic bay leaf and thyme. Pour over the roast. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 4 hours in the preheated oven. The brisket should be fork-tender. Mix together the cornstarch and water; stir into the juices in the baking dish to thicken. Remove the bay leaf. Slice and serve the meat.

BEER MARINATED BEEF ROAST

• Combine all marinade ingredients and mix well.
• Place roast in a large zip-loc bag, and pour marinade over the top.
• Place in frige.
• Let marinate overnite.
• Remove the roast from the bag, reserving marinade.
• Cook on grill over indirect heat, brushing with reserved marinade periodically.
• Use a meat thermometer to cook to your preferred doneness (we like med rare).

TENDER BEER POT ROAST (IN DUTCH OVEN, BRAISED WITH PORTER ALE)

Steps:

• Bring the beef to room temperature before you handle it.
• Mix flour, salt and pepper and coat the beef all over.
• Preheat the oven to 275-300 F (depending on your oven's calibration).
• Heat a Dutch oven or similar heavy duty oven safe pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and sear beef on all sides until nicely browned. Remove temporarily and lower the heat to medium.
• Saute the onions briefly, add the tomato paste and minced garlic and give everything a nice stir, cook about 1 minute. Deglaze with some porter and scrape brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the rest of the porter, then the beef broth, brown sugar and thyme. Stir.
• Add back the beef and surround with the potatoes and carrots. Bring to boil. Cover and transfer to the oven.
• Check after 2 hours to make sure that there is sufficient liquid remaining. If needed add a bit more ale or stock or water. Continue braising until the beef is very tender** and can easily be broken up with a fork.
• Reserve the juices to use in gravy (optional) and break up the roast before serving.

BEER AND BROWN SUGAR STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Use a fork to poke holes all over the surface of the steaks, and place steaks in a large baking dish. In a bowl, mix together beer, teriyaki sauce, and brown sugar. Pour sauce over steaks, and let sit about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/2 the seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder; set aside for 10 minutes. Turn steaks over, sprinkle with remaining seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and continue marinating for 10 more minutes.
• Remove steaks from marinade. Pour marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook for several minutes.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill steaks for 7 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. During the last few minutes of grilling, baste steaks with boiled marinade to enhance the flavor and ensure juiciness.

90 MINUTE BEER-BRINED POT ROAST

Steps:

• The success of this recipe relies on two things: the use of a Dutch oven or similar heavy pot with a heavy bottom; and that you use a very large piece of aluminum foil to cover not only the roast, but also go up the sides of the pot and over the pot's edge. The cover must make contact with the foil all around the edge. This is what permits the pot roast to cook quickly.
• Brining: Put all of the brine ingredients into a zippered gallon-sized plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake it until the salt and sugar are dissolved and the beer has lost most of its carbonation.
• Add the pot roast, seal and shake to coat the roast.
• Open an inch long section of the zipper, expel as much air as you can, reseal. Place on counter for 45 minutes.
• Roast: Place the oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Remove the roast from the brine and pat dry. (Discard the brine).
• Put the Dutch oven over medium high heat and add the oil. Brown both sides of the roast, about 5 minutes per side.'.
• Remove to a platter and season with salt and pepper.
• Add onions to the pot and saute until golden. Add the wine and simmer about 1 minute.Turn off the heat.
• Return the meat to the pot. Protecting your hands with oven mitts, place a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil over the meat, pressing down until it is covered from edge to edge, letting the excess foil drape over the edge of the pot. Press the foil against the pot.
• Cover the pot with its lid, raise the heat to medium-high, and cook until you hear the liquids bubbling.
• Place the pot in the oven and cook for 90 minutes - the roast should be dark brown at this point. Remove and let rest covered for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove the foil - steam will billow up, I suggest that you pull away the foil from the side farthest away from you first - and remove the roast to a platter.
• Skim fat from the liquid, then place the pot over medium high heat.
• Whisk the flour into the chicken broth and stir into the liquid in the pot. (You can add parboiled veggies at this point to the gravy, according to the chef).
• While the gravy thickens, slice the roast against the grain into slices. Cover with gravy and serve.

BEER-MARINATED CHUCK ROAST

Steps:

• Place the roast in a gallon-sized zip-top plastic bag. Add all the remaining ingredients and seal the bag. Refrigerate overnight.
• Position the oven racks so that the top rack is in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to convection roast at 400°F. Coat the roasting rack with nonstick spray; place the roast on the rack in a shallow roasting pan and brush with the marinade. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Roast for 55 to 60 minutes or until the oven probe or an instant-read thermometer registers 135°F for medium rare. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. The temperature will rise as the roast rests.
• To carve, cut the roast diagonally across the grain.
