• Beef broth: ¼ cup

Oven-Baked Chuck Roast Directions

• Season your chuck beef with some salt and pepper. Use your hands to season the meat well. I tried to keep it as much healthier as possible, but you can also use thyme, oregano, or sage for seasoning.
• Take a pan on the stove pot, and add in a little olive oil. Place beef over a high flame until it becomes crispy from the outside. It will take 7 to 8 minutes to get some color on the beef.
• Now stir fry some vegetables. Take a pan, add some oil, an onion bulb, garlic, soy sauce, and beef broth. Sauté them. To add some extra flavors, you can also add red wine, tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, or a combination of these.
• When the onions become golden brown, place the beef in the pan and cover the top with aluminum foil.
• Transfer the beef to the oven for 1.5 hours at 350F.
• When the time is over, take the beef out of the oven, and add in the remaining vegetables. You can also sprinkle some salt according to your taste. Again cover the pan with aluminum foil and transfer to the oven for 30 minutes at 350F.
• A perfectly baked chuck roast with juicy vegetables is ready to serve.

Tips & Tricks for Oven-Baked Chuck Roast

• Take the chuck roast out of the refrigerator two hours before you want to cook it. If you start cooking refrigerated chuck roast, it will surely end up becoming dry.
• Don’t forget to season the surface of the chuck roast with salt and pepper. When the salt melts, juices are formed and absorbed by the meat, thus adding a rich flavor.
• Once the chuck roast is done, allow it to rest for 5 minutes before serving it to your family. It will make the chuck roast moister and tender.
• You can also select veggies according to your choice. Mushrooms, celery, and bell peppers go equally well with the oven-baked roast.
• The cooking time of oven-baked Chuck roast depends on the cut of beef. It takes 3 to 3.5 hours to bake 3 pounds of chuck roast.

FAQs

How to know when the chuck roast is properly baked?

Two ways can be used to determine whether or not your roast is adequately baked. The first is using a meat thermometer. If the internal temperature of the meat on your thermometer reads 200 degrees Fahrenheit, the roast is done. If you don’t have a meat thermometer, you can use a fork to test the tenderness of your chuck roast. A well-shredded chuck roast signals that it’s time to relax and enjoy dinner.

Can I cook a medium-rare chuck roast?

Well, it all depends on the kind of cut you are opting for. There are different types of beef cuts like bone-in-rib, beef tenderloin, or chuck roast. If you want to enjoy medium-rare, then opting for bone-in-rib or beef tenderloin is the best option. As you will want some fats to remain intact, locking moisture and making your roast juicy. Herewith chuck roast, the story is different. It requires cooking for a long time until the meat falls apart with the fork. You know one secret, the more you cook it, the more tender and juicy it will become.

How to fix the dry chuck roast?

If you have got your roast dried out, then you can fix it. Unfortunately, losing its sliced shape will help you tenderize it or make it worth eating. First of all, you need to cut the dried chuck roast into small cubes. Then cook these cubes with broth in a Dutch oven at 275 degrees Fahrenheit until it shreds easily.

At what temperature shall I roast meat?

The oven temperature setting depends on the tenderness of the cut you are planning to cook. Chuck roast is best baked at 350 °F. Roasting at this temperature goes well with the larger section of the meat.

What if I need to bake 4 to 5 pounds of chuck roast?

If you want to make oven-baked chuck roast in higher quantities, no worries. You can increase the baking time to 4 to 5 hours.

Can I recycle the chuck roast leftover?

Yes, you can use leftovers to make some interesting cuisines. I’ll suggest you some. You can finely shred the meat and use it as food stuffing. You can also deep fry the meat to convert it into jerky.

Blackstone Griddle eggs in a basket

It was what I called it growing up. But there are many other names for this delicious breakfast. Eggs in the hole, Eggs with a hat, Eggs in a frame, Toad on the Road, Toad in the Pond, Bird’s Nest, Eggs in a Basket, Bullseyes, Egg surprise, Eggs in the corral, Cowboy toast, stray eggs, Goofy Toast, Chicken in a basket, Popeye eggs…

Your family will love them no matter what they are called.

How to make eggs in a basket?

This is a simple breakfast but I will give you some tips to make it great.

Butter both sides of the bread. Do this before you take out Wednesdays. Do not be timid.

You can cut the middle of the bread using a serrated knife to make multiple pieces.

If you don’t have good fins toast one side of the bread and then turn the other side to cook the eggs. Place a lid or dome on top of the mixture and let it cook until the whites have set.

Spices are essential! Eggs are best friends with salt and pepper!

We can’t be friends if you don’t make cut-outs or roast them in the yolk.

What bread is best for egg in a basket?

The best bread is one that you love and is large enough to hold a whole egg. This will leave bread, not just crust. Texas Toast is great for this.

Can I make it with scrambled eggs?

You definitely can make scrambled eggs using blackstone griddle! There are a few children in our family who haven’t had fried eggs for years. These are equally good with scrambled eggs and fried eggs. Feel free to experiment with what works for you and your family.

Which type of egg is best for the eggs in the Basket?

We used to have chickens once upon a time. Fresh eggs are something I loved about chickens. We had them for around 5-6 years. It replaced chickens completely – almost always.

The hens were killed by wildlife after we moved, but the eggs from the farm are still my favorite. If you have chickens in your garden, get extra eggs. They are well worth it.

Today, I am trying to find “good” eggs at a grocery store. However, none of the eggs were fresh from the bird.

Purchase the best eggs that you can afford and, if you’re brave, consider having chickens in your backyard.

The size of the bread you choose will also affect what kind of eggs you get. Small eggs = small bread

What do you do with the Blackstone Egg in the Hole?
