Rust – Regal Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds of boneless beef chuck roast
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil
• 1 onion (diced)
• 2 cloves of garlic (minced)
• 1 cup of beef broth
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon of dried basil
• 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Season the beef chuck with salt and pepper all over the surface of each side.
2. Preheat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, add the beef and cook until browned on each side for about 5-7 minutes.
3. Remove the beef and set it aside on a clean plate.
4. In the same pan, add the onion and garlic, and cook until translucent and fragrant for about 5 minutes.
5. Add the beef broth, bay leaves, thyme, basil, and oregano. Stir and scrape up any browned bits left from the meat, and simmer for 5-10 minutes.
6. Return the beef to the pan and spoon the broth mixture over the top of the beef evenly.
7. Cover and cook on low heat for about 6-8 hours or until the beef is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
8. Remove the beef from the pan and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
9. Discard the bay leaves in the juices and spoon some of the sauce over the meat to serve.

Verdict:

This Rust-Regal recipe combines the richness of beef with the fragrant aroma of a variety of herbs. It results in a juicy, tender, and flavorful beef dish that is perfect to serve alongside some veggies and roasted potatoes. The flavors of the sauce are an ideal complement for the rustic style of this dish.

Serving Suggestions:

Consider serving the Rust-Regal with mashed potatoes, roasted carrots, and green beans. Alternatively, you could use the beef to make sandwiches with crusty bread, spread with a layer of cream cheese or horseradish sauce, and topped with caramelized onions. Enjoy!
