Basic and Easy Stove Top Beef w/Onion Mushroom Gravy
CarbsPerServing:17g carbs total
Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
1 really big beef roast
(4-5lbs -or
whatever will fit into your
biggest pan)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup cooking oil4 cups water
2 teaspoons guar gum
2 tablespoons dehydrated
onion flakes
4 ounces sliced mushroom
— pieces are fine
additional salt and pepper
to taste

How to Prepare:
Mix salt, pepper and garlic
powder and rub into roast.
Let sit 10 minutes at
room temp. Heat oil in a big
pan. You want it hot - but not
smoking. Put in roast and
let brown well, over medium
heat, for about 5 minutes
per side or until
really browned nicely. Once
that’s done, Raise heat to
high and add water. Bring to
a good boil,
cover, reduce heat and
simmer for 2 hours -turn
roast every 1/2 hour so it
doesn’t dry out. Remove
roast from water and raise
heat. Add in mushrooms
and dried onion and
let boil for about 2 minutes.
(There should be about 3
cups liquid at this
point -you may want to skim
off some of the fat on top).
Mix guar gum with 1/2 cup
cold water and whisk into
the boiling gravy to
thicken. Allow to boil for 2
minutes.
Serve hot. NOTES : Counts
for guar gum not included -
adjust accordingly

    Beef Patties w/Mushroom Gravy
    CarbsPerServing:14g carbs total
    Effort:Easy
    Ingredients:
    1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
    — or other lean ground beef

    1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon pepper
    4 ounces canned
    mushrooms — do not drain
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper

    How to Prepare:
    In a large bowl, mix beef
    with pork rinds, egg,
    wosteshire, salt and
    pepper. Divide into 4 and
    form into patties.
    Fry for 4 minutes on each
    side to brown, then add the
    mushrooms and
    liquid. Redice heat, cover
    and let simmer 15 minutes,
    turning patties after 10
    minutes. If the liquid boils
    off, add another 1/4 cup
    water.
    Add the cream and
    remaining salt and pepper.
    Cover and simmer over very
    low
    heat an additional 10
    minutes or longer - until
    patties are cooked through.
    Turn patties to coat with
    sauce, then pour any
    remaining sauce and
    mushrooms over to serve.

    better.

    Beef Pull-A-Part
    CarbsPerServing:22g carbs total
    Effort:Easy
    Ingredients:
    4 lbs. chuck roast — (4 to 6)
    3 pieces celery — minced1 onion — minced,
    small/medium 1/3 cup soy sauce

    How to Prepare:
    Cut the chuck roast into 1-2
    inch cubes, place in crock
    pot. Add minced onion and
    celery. Pour soy sauce over
    meat. Cover. Cook on high
    for 1 hour, then turn heat
    down to low and cook for 11
    hours. Shread cooked meat
    with a fork. This recipe is
    supposed to be for
    sandwiches, but it is just as
    tasty by itself!

    Important — leave the fat on
    the roast while cooking,
    discard while shredding the
    meat. This helps to keep
    the meat tender.
