Roast Beef with Pan Gravy: 5 Secrets to Ultimate Flavor


  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

A succulent roast beef dish served with a rich, flavorful pan gravy that enhances the savory flavors of the meat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 to 4 pounds beef roast (chuck or ribeye recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Fresh herbs (such as thyme or rosemary) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Rub the beef roast with olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a large oven-safe skillet, sear the roast on all sides over medium-high heat until browned (about 4-5 minutes per side).
  4. Remove the roast from the skillet and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  7. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  8. Return the roast to the skillet, then cover and transfer to the preheated oven.
  9. Roast for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  10. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
  11. To make the gravy, place the skillet over medium heat and bring the remaining liquid to a simmer.
  12. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and a little bit of water to form a slurry.
  13. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering broth until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
  14. Slice the roast beef and serve with the pan gravy, garnished with fresh herbs.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the roast in your favorite seasonings overnight before cooking.
  • If you prefer a thicker gravy, add more flour to the slurry until desired consistency is reached.
  • Leftover roast beef can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
