Made roast beef last night, medium rare. Used bolar blade, marinated for 24 hours. Turned out really well, and photo shows that I don't know how to slice meat properly 😂 Also had potatoes and carrots roasting under the meat.

Sandwiches and wraps for the week, for sure!

What did you use for marinade?

[–] StickyDango@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce

2 tbsp dijon mustard

2 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup olive oil

1 tbsp white sugar

2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp black pepper

2 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp dried rosemary.

I mushed it all up in a ziploc bag, dropped the meat in, squished out as much air as I could, and just massaged it in to the meat. Let it sit in a shallow bowl in the fridge, and it's ready to go in 24h! Admittedly, I realise now that I forgot the Worcestershire sauce, but it was still pretty amazing flavour.

Roasting instructions: 240C/450F for 20 minutes, 180C/350F for about 1h after that. I'd check at the 40 minute mark to see if it's reached 44C/111F. I've moved and my oven is a little pathetic, so it took about an hour.

(You can roast potatoes and carrots and things with it too. Put it all under the meat so they roast up nicely and soak up the marinade.)

Whenever it hits 44C, take it out, put a piece of foil over it for about 20m to rest, then have at 'er!

Edit: Oh gods, the formatting of the ingredients, I'm so sorry. I don't know how to fix it other than double-enter them all. Apologies for the extra long post.
