Slicing the roast Hot or Cold
The answer is: It depends.
- Are you serving the meat right after it finishes cooking? If so, the aromas filling the room are so great that slicing the blade right in front of your family or dinner guests will make it seem enticing. So, just serve the chunk of meat on a platter and place the potatoes around it, and the gravy in a a small bowl.
- If you are serving the blade after refrigerating the meat, then go ahead and slice it after it’s cold. Refrigerate for at least a few hours. With a well sharpened knife, it’s easy to cut slices the width you prefer.
Enhanced Seasoning for Tender Brisket Pot Roast (or Blade)
For extra seasoning, when you decide you’re ready to serve the pot roast and want to heat it up again, add some freshly chopped parsley to the pot. Top that with some more paprika, or tomato paste, salt and pure date syrup. Add some more water, bring to boil and simmer 20 minutes. If you have chicken stock, substitute it for the water. Adjust saltiness.
Temperature
- Initially sear me at room temp., or the protein will form tight chains. No matter how long you cook the beef, it will not end up extra tender.
- Simmer on a small burner and low flame for several hours. This enables the collagen (protein) to turn into gelatin, resulting in a tender roast.
- Top blade is not an extremely juicy cut because it has less fat. This is even more-so true for brisket. It’s therefore necessary to cook it for several hours for extra tender roast.
- However, if you cook the meat at too low of a heat (like in an electric pot), it will take the steak around 14-16 hours to become super tender.
Instructions for Tender Brisket Pot Roast (or Blade)
Sear steak on both sides. Add a nice amount of freshly chopped onions. Brown the onions, sear the steak for 1 hours, occasionally flipping over. Add dry spices and saute for 1 minute. Add potatoes, parsley, rest of seasoning, and boiling water. Bring to boil and simmer 3 hours, adding some more water when water level is too low.

Pot Steak Blade Recipe
Non-dairy Pot Steak Blade Recipe is seared and then slow-cooked in a delicious gravy.
Ingredients
- 3.300 pounds top blade steak ( 1 1/2 kilos)
- 1/3 cup olive oil (or other oil)
- 2 large onions, sliced into ring halves
- 10 garlic cloves, sliced into 1/3s
- 8 medium potatoes 1/3s
- 2 cups chopped fresh parsley leaves with some thin stems
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened date syrup
- 2 quarts boiling water (2 L)
- 1/2 cup tomato paste (non-condensed)
Instructions
Sear steak 10 minutes in 3 tablespoons oil, toss in and sear another 10 minutes the onions and seasoning, EXCLUDING the date syrup.
Add rest of oil, potatoes, parsley and date syrup, sauté 20 minutes.
Add 4 cups boiling water and tomato paste, boil then cook on medium-high heat 20 minutes.
Add another 4 cups boiling water, bring to boil, cook 20 minutes.
Now, after 1 hour and 20 minutes, transfer to small burner, then baste steak with gravy, bring to boil, cover pot and lower heat.
Check for softness of meat after another 2 hours.
Remove steak from pot. Cool a bit then refrigerate. Slice when steak is not to hot to handle, or 8 hours later, or the next day. Return to pot, or store in container/pot with gravy, and the potatoes in another container/pot.
Notes
- Large, high-rimmed, non-stick pot.
- I use unsweetened tomato paste and therefore add (unsweetened) date syrup to cancel out bitterness of tomato paste.
- Raw meat should be room around temperature or higher before being put into pot to sear.
