Recipe: Salt and Pepper Beef Roast (using chuck roast)

Main Dishes - Beef and Other Meats
SALT AND PEPPER BEEF ROAST

4 to 6 pounds boned tied beef cross rib (chuck) roast
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt, divided use
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons coarse-ground pepper*
1/2 cup prepared horseradish

Rinse beef and pat dry. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup salt and sugar. Rub mixture all over beef, set in a rimmed pan, cover, and chill 3 to 4 hours.

Rinse meat and pat dry; if desired, cover and chill up to 1 day.

WHEN READY TO COOK:
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, pepper, and horseradish. Set beef on a rack in a 9- by 13-inch pan. Pat horseradish mixture over the top and sides of beef.

Roast in a 375 degrees F regular oven (or 235 degrees F convection oven) until a meat thermometer inserted in center of thickest part reaches 120 to 125 degrees F, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove from oven and let stand in a warm place at least 20 minutes.

Transfer meat to a rimmed platter or board; scrape any pan juices into a small bowl. Cut meat across the grain into very thin slices.** Spoon pan juices onto portions.

*For a mellow flavor, use the Spice Hunter's white peppercorns, from Sarawak in Malaysia; you'll find them with the spices at most supermarkets.

**The meat, hot or cold, tastes the most tender when sliced very thin; an electric knife does a good job.

SERVING SUGGESTION:
Potatoes, baked alongside the roast, make a perfectly easy accompaniment.

Makes: 12 to 18 servings
