Chuck Roast in a Tagine.

Northarrow

I love cooking Chuck roast in my Egg.  This time I wanted to incorporate my Tagine, a favorite cooking vessel I use during colder months.

First I took my chuck roast and coated it in Dizzy Pig Cow Lick rub.  Then put in in the LBGE @ 275 degrees for 4 hours to get it to the stall.




Then I gathered up the rest of the ingredients:  Yukon gold potatoes, carrots, green beans, canned tomatoes, beef broth, paprika, ground fresh pepper, red pepper, diced fresh ginger, copious amount of garlic and cilantro. 


Sautéing the ginger, garlic and paprika.


My assistant and companion was Founders Centennial IPA.  A favorite. (With my own Hop plants growing in the background)


After the roast did its thing for 4 hours, I assembled the rest of the cast and popped the chuckie in for another 1.5 hours in the Tagine. 



The theory of the Tagine is that the condensation travels up to the peak and then condenses down into the middle of the dish, ensuring a moist continuing bath.  I think it worked great in the Egg.


Just coming off the Egg. 


Plated Family Style.  The bark was out of this world on this one. A very tasty meal.  Leftovers for home fries and chuck omelets.

Great post, where's a good place to purchase a Tagine?  Also, what are their other recommended uses.

I picked up mine at a local well stocked kitchen supply store.   If you Google Tagine recipes you'll find many savory recipes.  Great gadget.

So, to be sure I understand - when you reached the stall instead of wrapping you put everything in the ganging and finished there? What was the finished temperature?

That's right.  Once it hit 165, I put it in the Tagine with the rest of the fixins for about an hour and a half.  It was at 200 internal when all the veggies were done.

"Ganging" - don't you hate autocorrect?
