Shoulder Roast With Garlic And Herbs - Jamie Geller

This kosher beef Shoulder Roast recipe can also be used for Delmonico Roast, French Roast or Rib Roast. The herbs do double duty — flavoring the meat, then building an incredible pan sauce to serve with the meat.

Serve this roast with HERB-ROASTED RED BLISS POTATOES and GREEN BEAN AND THREE ONION SAUTE.

This is a meal fit to impress, but easy enough for a beginner cook.

What is a Shoulder Roast good for?

The shoulder roast is sometimes called a silver tip roast and usually comes netted. Best to cook this roast either braised low and slow, or dry roast to rare. Tent with foil and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. For deli-style Roast Beef, cool before slicing thin.

Ingredients

• 2 cups chopped fresh herbs such as rosemary, parsley, basil, thyme
• 1 head garlic mashed
• ½ cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1 4-7 lb. beef shoulder roast or french roast from Grow & Behold
• Olive oil
• Reserved garlic/herbs mixture from roast
• ½ cup red wine
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch or matzo meal for Passover
• ¼ cup warm water
• 1-2 cups beef broth vegetable broth or water

Instructions

• Mix all Garlic Herb Rub ingredients together and rub all over the shoulder roast. Refrigerate 4-6 hours.
• When you are ready to cook, let the roast come to room temperature before browning. Scrape off herbs and garlic from the roast into a little dish and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 250°F.
• Heat 2-3 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven. Place the roast in the pan and cook, undisturbed, 3-4 minutes. Rotate until all sides of the roast are nicely browned (you can do this in a 450°F degree oven, but the sear is much better on the stove top.) Put the roast in the oven.
• Allow 20 minutes per pound, or cook until roast is medium-rare.
• Remove roast from the Dutch oven and allow roast to rest under a loose tent of aluminum foil at least 10 minutes before carving.
• Transfer Dutch oven to stove top. Add more olive oil if necessary. Add herb garlic mixture and cook over low heat until garlic is fully caramelized and crispy. It’s ok if some of it starts to stick to the pan, but be sure to remove the garlic and herbs before they burn.
• Deglaze the pan with red wine, scraping up the bits on the bottom as the wine simmers.
• Mix cornstarch with warm water until dissolved. Add to wine, along with broth/water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Return garlic and herb bits to the pan and simmer to reduce to desired thickness.
• Slice roast and serve with pan sauce.
