EASTER ROAST BEEF RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add half the beef and sear until browned on all sides.  Transfer to a plate and repeat with the other half of the beef. Once all the beef is seared, add the beer and deglaze, scraping up all the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 2 minutes, then remove skillet from heat.
• Into the slow cooker, add a small amount of beef stock (about ¼ cup), then add the bouillon and stir until dissolved. Add the seared beef and all the dripping from the plate, along with the carrots, onions, potatoes, deglazed beer from the skillet, the remaining beef stock, thyme, and onion soup mix. Give it a gentle stir to make sure everything is mixed.
• Set the slow cooker to low and let cook until beef and veggies are tender, about 8 to 9 hours. 
• Discard the thyme sprigs and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Remove the roast from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking to reach room temperature. Trim all the fat off the meat. Using a sharp knife, pierce meat about 1/2-inch deep and insert slivers of garlic in each hole, pushing all the way in. Lightly spray the meat with olive oil and season generously with salt, pepper and rosemary. Place the thermometer all the way into the center of the meat.
• Preheat oven to 350F. When the oven reaches 350F, place the roast in a roasting pan and put in the oven.
• Roast until the thermometer reads 130° for rare, 140° for medium rare, 150° for medium, and 155-160° for well done. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest 10-20 minutes before you cut it so that the juices distributed evenly. I personally remove my roast beef from the oven when it is 135° for medium rare. The temperature will rise an additional 5 degrees as it sits.
• Slice thin and serve.
