Instructions
For preparation of steak | |
|---|---|
| 1. | Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C). |
| 2. | Heat vegetable oil in an oven-proof dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the steak with 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1 1/4 teaspoons black pepper. Sear the steak on all sides until browned, approximately 2 - 3 minutes per side. |
| 3. | In a medium bowl, combine A.1. sauce, boysenberry jam, 1 3/4 cups water, garlic, mustard, brown sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Pour the mixture over the steak, cover the dutch oven, and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 2 hours until the steak is fork-tender. Remove the steak, cover it with foil, and let it rest. Place the dutch oven with juices on the stovetop over medium heat. Remove about 1/2 cup of juice to a heat-proof bowl, whisk in the potato starch, then return it to the dutch oven and stir to thicken the sauce. Heat the sauce until thickened, approximately 2 minutes, and keep it warm. |
| 4. | Using two forks, shred the steak into bite-sized pieces and keep it warm. |
For preparation of polenta | |
| 1. | In a large saucepan over high heat, bring 3 cups milk and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. Add garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Gradually stir in the polenta and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes until thickened. Stir in the parmesan cheese and butter. |
| 2. | To serve, spoon the creamy polenta into a serving bowl, top with the shredded steak and gravy, and savor the delightful flavors! |
