RECIPE FOR BEEF BOTTOM ROUND STEAK RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Fahrenheit (77 degrees Celsius).
• Remove the fully thawed roast from the fridge and remove it from the packaging.
• Place the bottom round roast on a cutting board and let it rest for 10 - 30 minutes.
• Brush the entire surface of the roast with olive oil or your choice of oil.
• Combine all of the seasonings in a small bowl.
• Rub the seasonings over the entire surface of the roast - top, bottom and all sides.
• Insert meat probe into the thickest part of the roast.
• Place the roast in the center of a roasting pan with the fat side up.
• Cook for 2 hours per pound until you reach your desired internal temperature. When the internal temperature reaches around 125-130 degrees Fahrenheit (you've hit medium rare).
• Remove the roast, tent with foil and rest for at least 10 minutes and up to 2 hours before you reverse sear.
• Reverse Sear

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Render the beef fat by chopping it into small bits (about the size of peas) with a food processor. Be sure the fat is very cold--it will chop better. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the fat by hand. Use a sharp knife and cut it as small as you can. Heat up the fat in a sauté pan over medium heat until the bits are browned. Strain the solids from the fat and measure 1/4 cup of fat for the gravy.
• Make the beef gravy by combining all of the ingredients, including the beef fat, in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture begins to boil reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, then turn the heat to low.
• Make the sandwiches by heating up the rolls in the hot oven for 3 minutes.
• For each sandwich, drop 1/4 pound of sliced beef (separate the slices) into the gravy for 2 minutes. Make sure the gravy isn't boiling. It should be around 180 degrees F. After the beef has soaked in the gravy, use tongs to arrange the beef on a warmed sandwich roll and top with your choice of hot giardiniera or sweet peppers. Or both. Spoon on some extra gravy just before serving.
