Red Wine Braised Pot Roast 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.

RED WINE BRAISED BUFFALO POT ROAST SERVED IN POTATO BONES

Steps:

• For the pot roast: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rub the roast with the rustic rub or seasoning blend, cover and let sit in the refrigerator overnight. Using a grill pan, sear all sides of the roast.
• Heat a roasting pan. Add olive oil, Spanish onions, pasilla peppers, carrots, celery and then the garlic, last. Deglaze the roasting pan with the burgundy and add the roast. Add herbs, tomatoes, and veal stock. Cover and roast for 3 to 3 1/2 hours or until falling apart.
• For the Sage Pesto: Lightly saute the chopped garlic in 1 teaspoon of oil. Put sage, basil, Pecorino Romano, pine nuts, chopped garlic and roasted garlic in a food processor or blender and slowly drizzle oil to desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and refrigerate.
• For the Cherry Fondue: Heat butter and shallots in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add flour to create a roux. Add Kirsch, cream, cherries, cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer to cook out flour. Season, to taste.
• For the Potato Bones: Peel potatoes. Carve to look like osso bucco bones. Blanch potatoes for 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool. Fry for 4 to 5 minutes until golden. Stuff with buffalo, top with pesto and cherry fondue.

RED WINE POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy ovenproof pot (with a lid) over high heat. Salt and pepper both sides of the roast, then sear it for about a minute on one side and a minute on the other side. Remove the meat to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium high and add the tomato paste, celery, garlic and onions. Stir it around and cook until the vegetables start to soften and the tomato paste releases its flavor, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the glorious wine, then stir and scrape the pot to get up all the browned bits on the bottom. Pour in the broth, then stir in the marmalade.
• Return the meat to the pot and top it all off with the potatoes, carrots, parsnips, rosemary and thyme. Push the veggies and herbs into the liquid, then put the lid on the pot, transfer to the oven and roast until the meat is fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours. (Mmmm. The liquid becomes something magical.)
• Transfer the roast to a serving dish (if it falls apart that's a good sign!) and place the vegetables all around it, then spoon on as much sauce from the pot as you'd like. Total, unmistakable, comfort food.
