sunday roast (beef)

[hunnybun1981]

what is the best way to cook it

i have cooked one b4 but havent had one in ages, if i need it to be ready for 5pm when would u start cooking it?

also what way do you do it, usually i bung in oven with a bit of water and tinfoil around

is this right are there any nice methods that make it taste even more yummy??

thanks

which joint of beef is it? rib, topside, silverside?

i put mustard over mine before it goes in the oven, and also let it stand wrapped in foil for quite a while after, then it should be really tender.

Cant say how long to cook it as difficult to say without knowing the type of joint or size.

will go check 1 second

ok its says beef brisket?

just over 1.1 kg in weight

thanks

my hubby doesnt like mustard but i do

bugger, i have never cookede brisket myself, but isnt it one which is long and slow to cook? Then wrap in foil and stand for an hour after. So if you time it that it comes out of oven at 4, it should be really yummy by 5. The mustard can just be kthinly put on with a pastry brush, i just gives the meat more flavour without being really mustardy, so your H may not even notice

sorry cannot be of further help. Someone may be along shortly with some advice.

no thats grand thank you will try the mustard .

is brisket like not as good meat its was 6 quid and i just lifted in in a hurry last night to be honest dont eat loads of meat.

I'd say 90 minutes on a low heat then a further 30 minutes. Then i'd stick a knife in it to see if any blood comes form it.

I'd then let it rest covered in foil for a further 15 minutes

Brisket is a cheaper cut of meat that requires very slow cooking on a very low heat.

Enjoy

brisket is a very tasty meat and is slightly cheaper than other cuts. BUT, if it is cooked correctly it is a really nice joint.

thanks thats great

least i know for future now
