I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Rich Roast Beef and Onions

The secret ingredient adding flavour depth to this roast is Angostura Bitters. It's not just for cocktails and don't worry it really isn't bitter like the name suggests, but rather a little spicy enhancing the meat tremendously!


Ingredients:
2 lb top sirloin beef roast
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
4 or 5 dashes Angostura bitters
1 tbsp steak spice (I used The Keg steak spice here)
1/4 tsp dry thyme
2 sliced onions

To start slice the onions and place on the bottom of your pan or baking dish. Sit the meat on top of the onions. Combine the rest of the ingredients and spoon over the roast. Cover and refrigerate for about 4 hours.


When ready to cook bring the meat back to room temperature, about 1 hour on counter, then roast uncovered at 400°F for 30-35 minutes for a nice medium rare to medium roast. Internal temperature should read 135°F. Remove to a plate and let rest 15-20 minutes before slicing.
While waiting, heat the pan on the stove top and add about 1/4 cup of broth or water and deglaze the pan creating a wonderful oniony au jus!


Serve with this decadent Deluxe Potato and Celeriac au Gratin.
