What Is Your Favorite Roast To Make?

I love a roast....and the several days of left overs plus some to freeze.

 

I love a rib roast, but that's more holiday.

 

What roast is your go to"?

 

Here's mine.  Awesome gravy.  I prefer this with added thickening in the crock pot for tenderness.

 

Mushroom Roast

 

 

Rump  or Sirloin Tip (I do 5 lbs)

 

2 Cans mushroom soup

1 Pkg Lipton Dry Onion Soup packets

2 tsp. Thyme

2 Tbsp. parsley

2 Tbsp. Steak sauce

2 Tbsp. Worchestchire sauce

 

Cut off fat and place roast in deep casserole.

Mix all remaining ingredients and pour over.

Cover as tightly as possible.

Bake at 325 degrees 3 hrs.

You may need to thicken the gravy if the roast has a lot of juices.

My mom makes a great eye of round roast - cooks it in oven for 3-4 hours; once out of the oven then uses the drippings to make gravy for the mashed potatoes we usually have with it.

Old fashioned rump roast just like mother and grandmother  made. We also cook it with a small pork butt. We use to roast them with a piece of veal but those days are gone. My favorite part is "stuffing" the beef with garlic cloves. Makes great au jus.

Eye Round. Recently we've been putting it on the rotisserie. I have to get the time and temperature right. Trial and error.

It depends on the end result I want.  I like to use a chuck roast made as a Mississippi Roast or three envelope roast, but lately I've been on an eye of round kick.  Mmm, so good.

I'll never turn down a prime rib roast.

I usually do a chuck roast in crock pot.  

 

My mom use to do a 7 bone roast and was so good.  I haven't seen one of those in ages.  Cook it slow and plenty of liquid and come out real tender.

 Roast pork , covered with  Dijon mustard  mixed with  fresh garlic & salt & pepper , Make  stuffing as you would for turkey and add  a can of drained  thin  pinapple pieces ( pfere packed in its own juices) .

 Bake in over till reaching proper temp  ( abt the last 1/4 cooking time cover with alumin foil to keep mustard from  getting to brown)

This is not a cut they sell as "7 bone" any longer!   Cut it differently for some reason.
