A Sirloin Roast seasoned with only salt and pepper, roasted to perfection and served with a Red Wine Onion Gravy that puts it right over the top. Sirloin Roast with Red Wine Onion Gravy is a picture perfect and delicious roast for any Holiday Table. All thanks to an app by Certified Angus Beef that I downloaded on my iPhone called #RoastPerfect! (Also available on your Android products)
This post is sponsored by Certified Angus Beef in conjunction with a social media campaign through Sunday Supper LLC. All opinions are my own.
I have never been one who roasted anything unless it was a turkey. I'm ashamed to admit it. Even when it comes to Venison that Grumpy brings into the house, we never have roasts cuts made. I always felt intimidated and that my roast would turn out tough or dry- and not just because I thought they would, but because they have in the past. Thanks to Certified Angus Beef and Sunday Supper I'm not feeling so intimidated anymore, but am feeling more adventurous and confident!
One of my biggest problems was not being educated, but with the RoastPerfect app, I'm learning my way and not only has it taught me what cuts of beef to choose for roasting, it has given me tips on how to tie, roast, and carve! When I went shopping for my cut of beef, I had no trouble picking up what looked like a beautiful cut of meat and I knew exactly what I was looking for! I also felt quite confident that I had the highest quality beef on the market in my shopping cart.
I found out that your recipe can be remarkably easy. As simple as only seasoning the roast with salt and pepper! I love that you can roast like that and make a sauce of your choice to go with it and compliment the beef.
I was aiming for the warm red center you get with medium rare, so I cooked it until it was about 10 degrees below the target temperature, which is 135.
I ended up with the perfect holiday roast and am no longer intimidated by roasting beef! I actually look forward to this Christmas with anticipation of creating a meal of beauty as well as a meal full of flavor!
- 4 pounds boneless beef chuck roast
- 2 teaspoons salt
- ¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 medium onions, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
- 1 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 fresh rosemary
- 1 fresh rosemary sprig
- 1 cup red wine
- 2 cups beef broth
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F.
- Pat beef dry and rub all over with 1 ½ teaspoons salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Place on rack in roasting pan and place in preheated oven for 15 minutes total.
- Turn heat down to 325 degrees and continue to roast for about 55 minutes longer for medium rare. Be sure to use an instant read meat thermometer to check the temperature.
- When beef has come to temperature, remove from oven and transfer to a platter. Cover with a foil tent and let sit for 15 minutes.
- While beef is resting, make the Red Wine Onion Gravy. Add onions to pot and sauté over moderately high heat, stirring frequently, until pale golden, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, thyme, rosemary, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add wine and bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and simmer for about 15 minutes or until liquid is evaporated. Add beef broth and bring back to a slow boil. While gravy is hot, stir together cornstarch and water until combined. Add to gravy stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer until gravy has thickened.
- Slice beef to serve and cover with onion gravy.
