Worcestershire Butter Roast Beef

Read...

Worcestershire Butter Roast Beef. A beautiful roast of beef seasoned with Worcestershire sauce, garlic and thyme butter which gets marinated overnight for maximum flavour! My idea for Worcestershire Roast Beef came from wanting to marinate a roast in Worcestershire sauce without the meat being overwhelmed by the flavour of the marinade. I love the flavour of Worcestershire sauce with beef, it is a naturally delicious and complimentary combination. Marinating steaks or a roast overnight in the sauce though, can make it absorb too much, so I was looking for an alternate method to infuse the flavour.

Ingredients

4 ib beef roast (prime rib, tenderloin or striploin roast is best)

1/3 cup soft butter

3 cloves minced garlic

1 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce

1 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp black pepper coarsely ground

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 tbsp English style mustard optional

Instructions

 

1. Cream together the butter, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, pepper and mustard.


2. Using cold wet hands pat the butter all over the roast.


3. Cover in plastic wrap and let stand in the fridge for up to a day.


4. Take the roast out of the fridge and keep it at room temperature for 60-90 minutes roasting. This ensures a more even cooking of the beef.


5. Place the roast on on a roasting rack in an aluminum foil lined shallow roasting pan.


6. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roast the beef, uncovered at this temperature for 20 minutes.


7. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F and roast uncovered for up to another hour or until the roast reaches the internal temperature desired for the doneness you prefer. See Notes.


8. Baste the roast a couple of times with the butter and pan drippings during the cooking time
