I wanted roast beef and gravy, damn it!
So I started marinating the economical beef I purchased, to add flavour and juiciness.
And I never stopped!

Roast Beef Marinade ingredients
Heres what you need.
The ingredients in this are pretty similar to mySteak Marinade.
(PS Soy sauce acts as a brine in this recipe, injecting salt into the flesh.
As opposed to adding Asian flavours there is nothing remotely Asian about this roast beef recipe!
Bolar Blade(Aus/parts of UK) perfect for this marinade!
An economical cut with fair flavour and is reasonably tender but is enhanced by marinading.
Its used for corned beef and to make things likePastrami.
If youve purchased a good quality one, theres no need to marinade.
But if youve purchased a good value one, this roast beef marinade will certainly enhance it.
These are pricier, quality cuts and a marinade would be wasted on them!
Slow cooking cuts Brisket, chuck and ribs.
These are tough cuts of beef that need to be slow cooked to breakdown the tough fibres.
Anything less than 24 hours is better than not marinating at all, but its less effective.
Final Tips!
Handy to make gravy afterwards rather than man handling a roasting pan on the stove ).
Gravy is optional here weve added good flavour into the beef so you dont need it.
But Im never one to turn down gravy, so Ive popped the recipe in the notes.
But truly, its great even without.
I really hope I managed to capture how tender and juicy the beef is in the recipe video!
