"Slow cooker.

My sister in law did it in the slow cooker when we went for dinner. It was amazing! I’ve done pork in mine but never beef. Didn’t think it would work but it really does.

I hate cooking beef. Can cook a joint absolutely perfect. Following week, cook a similar joint, same weight, cook it the same, and disaster.

If I was giving any advice, it would be to check it about 20 mins before you think its ready then 10 minutes before. if its under cooked you can put it back in. If its overcooked.......

I've done red wine in the past, but yeah some water at least.

You also get the best base for gravy!

Salt your meat. I can’t stress enough how much difference it makes.

A few hours before you’re going to cook, or even overnight if you plan ahead, cover the meat really thoroughly in salt and put it back in the fridge. Rinse that salt off and pat dry when it’s time to prep and cook.

Just googled. Jamie Oliver gives a great little tutorial.

Brown it first to seal in juice and flavour then cook on a bed of veggies for moisture and flavour.

It really depends on the cut. Generally the less it cost per kilo the longer and slower it should be cooked and the better it tastes.

Rub in salt and olive oil.

Then roll in mustard powder and black pepper. To form a lovely crust.

Roast away

If I had the time, sear the surface and then slow cook in a mixture of water, spices, seasoning, lemon juice, vinegar, several cloves of garlic and a whole onion, skin off, with a slice running through one side.

No time, then repeat the above in a pressure cooker.

Reverse sear depending on how thick it is

Also, a good cut. Go cheap and you’ll get cheap. Get a fillet

Salt it and let it stand for 30 mins, then put in a HOT frying pan with a little olive oil and seal / brown the outside.

Then pop in oven for an hour. X

Always good if you can truss it, some salt and pepper, then sear it first to give it a nice colour. 20mins per pound in 180° preheated oven and 15mins extra for rare( my preference) or 20-25 mins for medium. Rest for at least 15 to 20 mins. Enjoy

If it’s a joint always take it out about 10/15 mins before the time and then put tin foil over it…the heat will still cook it but it’ll be perfectly rare/medium rare.

Let someone else cook it while you enjoy a couple of beers. That's the perfect way for me.

Right behind you…. Boo

Rub in a little oil, salt and if it’s your thing, mustard into the meat. Cook it slowly on a trivet of root vegetables and celery (that you will use later for the gravy.

This is how I've always done it more or less. YouTube Tom Kerridge, his way looks banging
