Pot Roast With Rich Red Wine And Onion Gravy Recipes

AWESOME RED WINE POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sprinkle the roast evenly with the flour and set aside. Heat the canola oil in an oven-proof Dutch oven with lid over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides, about 10 minutes total; remove from the heat. Pour in the water and wine. Sprinkle with the basil, marjoram, thyme, salt, and pepper. Arrange the onion slices on the roast.
• Replace the cover and bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Add the potatoes, carrots, and pearl onions. Pour in additional water if the roast looks dry. Continue baking covered until the roast pulls apart easily with a fork, about 1 hour longer.

POT ROAST WITH RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• Make six deep slits into the roast. Insert one clove of garlic into each slit.
• Slice 1/2 of the onion. Layer on the bottom of the crock pot.
• Add baby carrots.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on all sides of the roast. Place roast in crock pot on top of vegetables, fat side up.
• Finely chop remaining onion.
• Mix onion, wine, water, Worchestershire, bouillon, brown sugar, basil, and horseradish in a small bowl. Pour over roast.
• Cook roast on low heat for 6-7 hours.
• Turn roast over halfway through cooking to allow both halves to cook in the juices.
• Remove roast to a serving plate. Spoon about 1/2 cup of juices onto the roast. Allow the roast to rest for 10-15 minutes.
• Puree remaining juices, onions, and carrots in a food processor to make a gravy.
• Pour gravy into a medium saucepan and heat on low.
• Melt butter in a small pan or cup. Wisk in flour until it forms a paste.
• Wisk paste into gravy mix. Continue to heat until thickened.
• Slice roast, serve with gravy and enjoy!

BALSAMIC POT ROAST WITH RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion power. Coat your roast with the seasonings.
• Brown the pot roast over medium heat in pan. Brown on all sides (should take 5-7 minutes total). Do not clean your pan yet!
• Add sliced raw onion to bottom of crockpot. Place browned meat into crockpot too.
• In pan you just browned the meat in, add tomato sauce, balsamic vinegar, and beef stock. Simmer for 10 minutes or until reduced by half. Pour sauce over roast in crock pot. Juice should come partially up the roast but not cover it. As it cooks, the roast will release more juice.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
• Remove roast from crockpot and lightly shred with a fork. Save all the juice from the crockpot to use in your gravy!
• In a pan over medium-low heat, melt butter and whisk in flour. Cook on low for several minutes, whisking continuously until your rue is a golden brown color.
• Deglaze the pan with your red wine. Make sure you continuously whisk!
• Add in your roast juices 1 cup at a time. I typically end up adding about 3 cups of the liquid. Bring gravy to a low simmer and continue whisking. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until desired consistency.
• Top your roast with the gravy and enjoy! I put mine on a toasted ciabatta roll. YUM!

POT ROAST IN RICH GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• On a large plate mix together matzoh cake meal with 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pat meat dry then coat with matzoh meal mixture, dusting off excess (discard matzoh meal but reserve plate).
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 6- to 7-quart-wide heavy pot over medium high heat until oil shimmers. Brown meat on all sides, totaling about 12 minutes. Transfer to plate.
• Reduce heat to medium and add onions, carrots, and parsnips to pot with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften and turn golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add wine to pot and boil, scraping up any bits from bottom of pan until wine is reduced by half.
• Add chicken broth, tomatoes in juice, thyme, bay leaves, and cinnamon stick to pot and bring to a simmer. Return meat to pot and cover with lid. Place in oven and braise until meat is tender when pierced with a fork, about 3 hours.
• Transfer meat to a cutting board. Remove thyme sprigs, bay leaves, and cinnamon stick. Transfer 2 cups braising liquid to a blender and purée until smooth (use caution when pureeing hot liquids). Stir pureed sauce into liquid in pot and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Discard strings from meat and cut into thick slices (it may fall apart as you slice it because it's so tender), then return meat to sauce and serve.
