Slow Roasted Beef Tenderloin with Horseradish Cream Sauce

beef tenderloin

salt

garlic powder and black pepper

olive oil

thyme

rosemary

oregano

sage leaves

butter

cream cheese, room temperature

milk

horseradish

½ tablespoon each of fresh oregano and thyme leaves

Dijon mustard

½ lemon, juiced

Kosher salt and pepper

olive oil, divided

baby potatoes, halved

mushrooms,

fresh oregano or thyme leaves

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet pan with foil and set a roasting rack inside the pan.

Tie the meat with butcher’s twine in 1 to 2-inch intervals, folding the thin end underneath to keep the tenderloin the same thickness as much as possible. Place tenderloin on prepared sheet pan.

In a small bowl, whisk the salt, dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, cumin, garlic powder and black pepper until combined.

Evenly coat the tenderloin with olive oil.

Rub the dried herb mixture all over the meat.

Tuck bunches of the fresh herbs under the twine.

Roast tenderloin in preheated oven for 80-90 minutes for medium-rare* and rotate the pan halfway through cooking time. (Use an instant read thermometer to check the tenderloin’s temperature after an hour to see where you are.)

When you’ve reached desired doneness, remove tenderloin from oven.

Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

When butter has melted and begins to foam, add the tenderloin to the skillet and sear 1-2 minutes on each side.

Tent the tenderloin with foil and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.

Serve tenderloin on a platter with desired veggies and Horseradish Cream Sauce on the side. Enjoy!!

Beef Tenderloin

Whisk all ingredients in a medium bowl until well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.)

Horseradish Cream Sauce

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a large, oven-proof skillet heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat.

When oil is shimmering, add potatoes to skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook potatoes until browned on edges, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.

Stir mushrooms into skillet with potatoes and remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Cook 5 minutes until mushrooms begin to soften, stirring frequently.

Transfer skillet to preheated oven. Roast potatoes and mushrooms 10-15 minutes until potatoes are fork tender.

Carefully remove skillet from oven and stir in fresh oregano or thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy! (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm in low oven with tenderloin or microwave.)

Roasted Potatoes and Mushrooms (optional)

Excellent, super easy recipe and process! Totally useing this every time I fix a rib roast; at least 3 times a year.

The cooking method in this rib recipe was spot on. My oven, however, cooks very hot so I was concerned about 450 degrees to sear the roast so I only left the temp at 450 for 15 minutes, then I turned it down to 400 for 15 minutes, then as recommended, to 350 for the remaining time. We then let the roast sit with foil over it until before dinner which was about 1 1/2 hours--about 10 minutes before dinner we put it back in the oven at 325 degrees.  The roast was perfectly medium rare. I am glad I read this recipe because I've had a problem in the past knowing how long the roast will take ahead of time so that I know when dinner will be served, but this method allowed me to plan the timing for the Yorkshire pudding to sync with the meat. I did not season the meat per this recipe; we prefer simple salt and pepper and not tons of salt, but this cooking method was really good. The meat was juicy yet there was a lot of juices for the Yorkshire pudding. Perfect!

The cook times here are way too long.  We just cooked a 21 pound rib roast and thank God I set the oven at 325 instead of 350, and I checked it often but actually not often enough.  At 3.5 hours total, 30mins at 450 and 3 hours at 325 it measured 140 internal temp.  Way too done.  The total cook time was actually 10 mins per pound, not 15 to 20 and yes my oven is calibrated and accurate.  Our guests won't arrive for 3 more hours so I guess the thing will have to rest for 3 more hours instead of 30 mins.

This recipe came out wonderfully. This was my first time making prime rib it came out perfectly! I actually made in my Le Creuset and it was perfect.

This was the 1st time I have ever cook a prime rib. I followed this recipe and the results were fantastic. My prime rib was a hit and gladly to say I had no left overs. The only thing I did do different was to add dry and fresh herbs. It made this roast that much better.

It's the rib roast recipe you'll go back to again and again.

In a small dish add the butter and flour and mash them together with the back of a tablespoon to make a paste. Remove the reduced broth mixture from the heat and add the paste, whisking together to melt the paste. Set the saucepan back on the heat and boil briefly, whisking continuously for another minute until thickened. Transfer to a serving pitcher and pass to guests.

Roast beef with Yorkshire Pudding is a British classic, also known as the Sunday Roast.  We are using a rib roast but this is equally delicious with any cut of beef such as sirloin, tri-tip or a chuck roast.  While the beef is resting, bake the Yorkshire Pudding and watch the simple batter magically transform.  Serve with a rich beef gravy.

This particular method of cooking is very low and slow. We are cooking the roast at 200°F which gives spectacular results but takes longer than traditional methods. Make sure you plan the time accordingly. See the chart in the post for general timelines.

A spicy flavored brine with an intense flavor that soaks into the meat ensuring meat that is moist, succulent, and loaded with taste. Boning the turkey first then roasting is a guarantee you don&#039;t overcook it.

Perfect Roast Turkey: Brine it; Debone it; Roast it

lemon juice

oranges (halved)

brown sugar

onions

jalapenos (minced (with their seeds))

cilantro

Tablespoons chopped garlic

chili powder

cumin

turkey

unsalted butter

onion (med. size thinly sliced)

white wine (dry)

All Our Way seasoning

Combine all of the ingredients with 1 1/2 gallons of water in a large nonreactive container, large pot or brining bag and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt.

First step is to rinse the turkey under cold running water. Make sure everything is out of the turkey&#39;s cavity. Trim off all extra pieces of skin and fat, including the wing tips. Discard.

Add the turkey to the brine and make sure the salt water solution covers the turkey. If necessary add more water.

Refrigerate for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours.

When ready to roast, remove brined turkey from the flavorful solution and pat dry with paper towels. Follow the technique for All Our Way Turkey - Brine it, Bone it, Bake it.

BRINING THE TURKEY

Heat oven to 350℉. Place the boned turkey skin side down in a large pan. Make sure the pieces fit snuggly together - you don&#39;t want those pan juices to evaporate. 

Generously season the turkey with All Our Way seasoning and rub or your favorite seasoning. Scatter the thinly sliced onions over the top of the meat. Dot the entire turkey pieces with the unsalted butter. 

After 15 minutes, turn the turkey skin side up in the pan. Sprinkle the white wine over the turkey and salt and pepper this side.&nbsp;

Using a turkey baster, baste the turkey with its juices every 15 minutes. Once the thickest pieces reach an internal temperature of 160 F. remove from oven.&nbsp;

Loosely tent with aluminum foil and let it rest for 15 minutes.&nbsp;

Slice the turkey parts and then put them back into the pan. Baste with the juices of the turkey slices.

ENJOY!! This will be one moist and delicious turkey at your Thanksgiving dinner.

Place prime rib in baking dish or on baking sheet. Generously season all sides of prime rib with salt, then cover prime rib with aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Place baking dish in refrigerator and chill at least 1 hour, but no more than 12 hours.

When ready to cook prime rib, fill large pot or other large, heat-resistant container with water. Insert sous vide immersion circulator and set to 132° Fahrenheit (see Notes for alternate temperatures). Note: pot must be deep enough that water level falls between minimum and maximum indicators on circulator.

Place prime rib in food-safe bag. Remove as much air from bag as possible with vacuum sealer or water displacement method (see Notes) and seal bag shut.

Once water bath is preheated to 132° Fahrenheit, place sealed bag in pot, making sure prime rib is fully submerged. Weigh bag down with weights or silverware attached to bottom of bag if needed. Food must be fully submerged to cook properly.

Cook prime rib in water bath 8 hours. After 8 hours, remove bag from water bath. Transfer prime rib from bag to baking sheet and set aside. Reserve cooking liquid from bag and set aside for au jus.

Preheat oven to 475° Fahrenheit. Add salt, pepper, softened butter, minced garlic, minced rosemary, salt, and pepper to small bowl. Mix together ingredients until fully combined.

Pat prime rib completely dry on all sides with paper towels. Once dried, cover prime rib with butter mixture on all sides, gently rubbing mixture into prime rib.

When entire butter mixture has been applied, place baking sheet in preheated oven. Roast prime rib 10 to 15 minutes or until outside of prime rib is golden brown. When desired coloring is achieved, remove baking sheet from oven and let prime rib rest at least 15 minutes.

While prime rib rests, heat small skillet over medium heat. When pan is warm, add reserved prime rib juices, Worcestershire sauce, and red wine. Whisk to blend ingredients, then simmer mixture 4 to 5 minutes or until liquid has reduced by 25%.

Pour in beef broth and gently whisk to incorporate. Continue simmering until liquid has reduced to desired consistency, then transfer au jus to serving container.

Carve prime rib into thick slices, working against grain of meat for tender cuts. Serve warm with au jus and desired sides.
