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