English Roast with Orange Rosemary Butter
Jill O’Brien
When I’m wanting a medium rare roast and when a cut needs a little tenderizing, my always go to method is Hot & High then Low & Slow. It’s a winner every time.
This cut has a sinew seam that runs through it, but is very easy to eat around it after slicing.
Ingredients
blank
- 1 – 1.5 pound Wild Idea Buffalo English Roast
- 2 – tablespoons olive oil
- 1 – teaspoon of salt
- 2 – teaspoons of black pepper
- 2 – teaspoons of onion powder OR

Directions

Remove English Roast from packaging, then rinse and pat dry.
In a heavy pot, add the olive oil and seasonings. Mix together.
Place the roast in the pot and roll it around in the seasonings. Cover lightly with plastic wrap or a towel and allow the roast to rest for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature.
Preheat oven to 500°.
Place roast uncovered in hot oven for 7 minutes, then shut the oven off.
Leave the roast in the oven for another 2 hours. Do NOT open the oven door.
Remove the roast from the oven and turn the oven back on to 500°.
Remove the roast from the pot and place on a cutting board and cut the roast into thin slices, keeping the slices tightly together. Transfer the slices onto a baking pan for reheating.
Place the pot that the roast cooked in on the stovetop over medium high heat and add either a little broth, wine or water for an au jus. Season to taste.
Place sliced roast back into hot oven and reheat for 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove from oven and immediately transfer to a platter. Serve with hot au jus.

Any ideas on cooking this roast in crockpot?
This recipe is a winner! I had my doubts about the rosemary-orange butter, but it truly added another dimension to the roast. I’m definitely making this again!
I tried this recipe last night with a couple of minor adaptations. My husband, who likes all things Wild Idea, said this was the best thing I have ever made from Wild Idea! It was quite easy. It just required planning ahead so it has plenty of time to sit and then to roast (while I read a book). It was tender and so flavorful. Thanks to all of you.
