Roast beef is a classic main meat dish. Be sure to ask your butcher to help you choose a high quality roast, and use this simple cooking technique for a melt-in-your mouth roast with very little prep time or ingredients. Read on to learn how to cook a frozen roast beef.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • A 2 to 3 lb, roast, frozen
  • One large onion
  • Up to 1 gallon of water
  • Large roasting pan
  • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • Skillet
  1. Step 1

    Slice the onion into 1/2 inch thick slices, place in skillet with vegetable oil. This will be all the seasoning your roast beef needs.

  2. Step 2

    Place the frozen roast beef on top of the onions, fatty side down.

  3. Step 3

    Stir the onions occasionally, so they don't stick to the pan as they're cooking. The goal is dark brownish onions to provide flavoring for your frozen roast beef.

  4. Step 4

    Turn the meat over occasionally, so that an almost burnt layer builds up on the outsides of the frozen roast beef.

  5. Step 5

    When the onions are caramelized and the roast is dark brown all the way around, transfer to a roasting pan. At this point, the inside will still be frozen. Add enough water to cover the roast and cook for three to four hours at 350 degrees.

  6. Step 6

    Use a meat thermometer to ensure that your roast beef is finished. You might want to turn it over in the juices halfway through the cook time.

Tips & Warnings
  • You can eat this roast as is or shred it to combine with your favorite sauce.
  • Always cook beef products to an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
