Brasato al Barolo - Tender Beef Braised in Red Wine

6 ай бұрын

Today we're making Brasato al Barolo. Actually, we will use a much less expensive wine known as Barbera which will save you quite a bit, but feel free to use Barolo if you like. This is a tender delicious beef dish that is best served over creamy polenta or mashed potatoes.

You can use a chuck roast instead of brisket which can be served as chunks or shredded. A brisket will yield nice slices. Even though this dish is traditionally made with Barolo, we recommend you opt for a less expensive dry red wine unless you are Mr. or Mrs. Moneybags😂. The ingredient amounts (also in grams) are right in the description and the print recipe is linked there as well. As always, thanks for liking our recipes and videos and sharing our family table each week.

If you're going to leave Italy for the wine, I'd suggest Côtes du Rhône. It's excellent for cooking, lots of fruity flavors without the oakiness and tannins that dominate a lot of reds, especially after reducing. It's a red blend with balanced flavors. There are many red Côtes du Rhône brands available in the ten to twenty dollar range.

Definitely don't skip the overnight thing before serving. The congealed fat is easy to remove. You can use the fat for roast potatoes. The meat is a lot easier to slice neatly when it's cold. You can slice it and reheat with a bit of the broth to keep it moist. The meat will even stay together better. Cooling it helps to set the gelatin in the meat so it is less likely to break apart even when reheated. Fresh vegetables for serving with the aromatics blended well is great.

Nebbiolo, which is the grape that goes into Barolo & Barbaresco, can be found throughout the general region of the Langhe ( the bigger region that includes both of the killer B's) Nebbiolo della Langhe is a whole lot cheaper than the B's. You can also find some Nebbiolo from the region of Valtellina. The biggest producer there is Nino Negri. They have great wines at many price points. I hope this helps you be "traditional" without breaking the bank.

This recipe far exceeded my expectations, it was outstanding! I had a 9 lb brisket in the freezer and used that with no issues. I also found an inexpensive Barolo at Costco, around $20. I only marinated for about 12 hours, but the brisket and the sauce were out of this world good. The 9 lb brisket only took 4 hours in the oven. I also made the creamy polenta to go along with the dish. Our brains fell out on the floor it was so good. Thanks again for a great recipe.

If you want to keep it less curly through the sear, score the fat cap with a 1-1.5" grid about halfway through the fat and trim up the edges of the roast to get rid of any fat and connective tissues right on the edges.

I'm really enjoying watching your channel grow. You post a lot of solid recipes and you are personally engaging. One quick note: you apologize just a bit too much! If someone chews on you in the comments for using wine, or too much garlic, or whatever, let that slide. Lots of people on the Internet with nothing better to do than try to get under other peoples' skin. Every serious person who watches your channel knows to adjust spices and flavorings up or down based on personal preference. YOU just keep showing us the recipes you learned growing up. We can either then adapt those for our own preferences - or! - we can make them as you suggest, and - OH MY GOD! - try something...NEW! (In other words, people tend to be silly, so best to ignore them. Keep doing you. It's working.)

I improved on the great Marcella's recipe. What! Well, she cooked veggies separately. Then after lifting out the roast she strained the remains and then defatted the results and then made a sauce. Superb but wasteful. I, at the half way mark turn over the roast and add whole mushrooms, boiling onions, carrot chunks and red potato chunks. When the beef is done, I lift out the roast and all the veggies. Then I carefully skim off the fat as much as practical. Then bingo....immersion blender. and the sauce is awesome. Adjust the S&P then serve. One pot, killer veggies and rooms and no waste of all those root veggy dice.d goodness. Love your vids The kid is a hard judge. LOL @@SipandFeast

I’m not a fan of sweet Marsala but adore the dry. For braised meat that has carrots in it, the carrots are sweet enough to balance the flavors. I’ve had other dishes with so many carrots diced in there that it rendered the whole dish so much that it hard to eat. Unfortunately, it always seems to be when I go out on a date with someone that I’ve recently started dating. I’m getting good at praising the dish pretty good in front of the date. Hahaha

My very anecdotal experience watching lots of KZfaq channels. (ATK says the difference between Diamond Crystal and Morton's is an additive Morton's adds to prevent caking.) BBQ people prefer Diamond Crystal by a wide margin. The Chef crowd leans Morton. I went to Diamond Crystal route because well, an additive was something I didn't want to think about and BBQ sounded fun. But learn your crystal size is the take away.
