Delicious 1794 Roast Beef! - Dutch Oven Cooking

New Instagram - @18thcenturycooking
This is the second video in a short series on baking in a "Bake Kettle" or Dutch Oven. Today we prepare an absolutely wonderful roast beef recipe from the "Domestic Economy" cookbook written in 1794 by Maximilian Hazelmore.
The Dutch oven was perfectly suited for use on the frontier. One can fry in it, make stews and soups with it, as well as bake in it. While the first two cooking methods are fairly easy, baking with a Dutch oven can be a little intimidating. With a few hints and a little experimentation and practice, baking in this 18th-century pot can be easy and rewarding.

I've had the pleasure of meeting him, and his wife....and you are most accurate in your assessment.

[@sutlers2day]

He and his family were re-enactors in the REV WAR group the NWTA for many years. We knew the family while we lived in Wisconsin and re-enacted with them. I bought my first 18th C lantern from them in 1981 when Jon was a boy the same age as my son Jon in1981 ...11 or 12. All the kids in the military camp played together and now YEARS later, I know my daughter 6 at the time had a little crush on him. LOL!! I must tell you that YES they are absolutely a wonderful family.... his Dad James and Mom Suzy were the nicest and kindest people in the REV WAR re-enacting group , THE NORTHWEST TERRITORY ALLIANCE... that was in the Mid-West!! I still have some cast iron equipment although we are too old and ailing to camp. My husband and I often use Jon's receipts even cooking on a stove indoors. MISS that wonderful wood smoke flavor though. : )

[@NieroshaiTheSable]

Inaccurate. Numerous recipes in this series used potatoes. Tomatoes were thought to be poisonous because they're in the nightshade family. Not true with potatoes.

[@hezechiahjones8365]

Nieroshai Tomatoes were also thought to be poisonous because they leached lead out of pewter plates, causing them to actually be poisonous for consumption, although the problem wasn't the tomato, it was the plate they were using.

[@maryudomah4387]

This is pot roast. It’s not a steak. It’s always well done but it’s cooked so long that it’s tender.

[@TanksForTheMammeries]

I agree. It was shoe leather, but I do wonder if, back in the day, they all overcooked the meat because they lacked refrigeration and wanted to ensure they killed all the bad stuff. Also, I MISS GARLIC!

[@TheBlaert]

@@TanksForTheMammeries Beef done like this is still going to be tender as hell when it'd well done

[@TanksForTheMammeries]

@@TheBlaert I disagree. That meat had no fat. None. Watch how the knife went through, they had to saw. Nothing against the video, back in the old days, you went with what you had. I'm sure it tasted great based on the ingredients, but you can't tell me it was fork-tender. In fairness, this is the best recipe for a cut of meat like this, but it doesn't make it better, it keeps it from being worse. Again, kudos to Townsends, it's a great video and probably very tasty.

[@TheBlaert]

@@TanksForTheMammeries fair point tbf. It looks kind of like beef we get here called stewing steak. Not sure what cut it is. It has no fat either but when done it isn't too tough. Granted it isn't melt in the mouth but it's not tough per se.

Here’s a question for you. And by the way: I really like watching your videos :-) My question (which might turn into a video): How were 18th century tastebuds compared to ours? Did they like it more or less salty / sweet / sour?In other words: did they add more or less salt than we do? Were desserts more or less sweet? Maybe from all the recipes you have tried you can make an assumption whether they liked it more or less intense than us. Thanks a lot, greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

[@stinkmonger]

desserts were definately less sweet for sure, since sugar was much more expensive. most of the sweetness would probably come from the fruit they used or with syrups/honey

As a retired butcher from a small rural grocery store, I can tell you that your rump roast is a great roast. However, you would have had a much more flavorful roast had you chosen a chuck roast!

[@gigicaly]

just do beer man trust me you'l never cook meat without it again. I marinate beef in beer with condiments salt, pepper, bay leaves and so on for like 24h in the refrigerator than I take the meat out and grill it or make it in the oven with the beer sauce. It is a joy :).

[@lelandunruh7896]

I hate to be "that guy", but marinating a large cut of beef in beer for 24 hours makes virtually no difference to the end result which wouldn't be made with two hours of marinating. It is virtually impossible for any marinade (which isn't a brine) to penetrate more than 1/8" into the meat, and there is virtually no tenderizing effect, either. Most of what we think we know about marinades are assumptions which originated before people bothered applying the scientific method to food preparation.

This channel is so awesome to go to sleep to. I sincerely do not mean this in any way to mean that the videos are boring quite the opposite. I just find the calm friendly manner of your presentation soothing in the same way I love watching the Joy of Painting.

Hi! I've been building a small stock of cast iron cookware, which of course my first purchase was a Dutch Oven. I used these in Scouts as a boy, but do not have much background nor memory about recipes. Do you sell a Dutch Oven cook book? If so, I'd like to buy it.

hhhhmmmmmm... my mouth is watering!

Roast beef is also a euphemism Mrs. Townsend uses for Mr. Townsend when he gets a sunburn. Love your videos sir. Keep them coming.

Just stumbled across this channel yesterday, and I am throughly mind blown. I'm from India, and mostly vegetarian hence won't be trying any of these recipes, however as a somebody who loves history, this is simply fascinating.

Are you wearing the "Brown Standard Wool Felt Civilian Tricorn" hat that you sell on your store?

[@townsends]

+Gabbos Ironfist Yes, this one: jas-townsend.com/brown-standard-wool-felt-civilian-tricorn-p-1486.html

Did you get a college degree in food history? You seem very smart on that topic

[@OmegaWolf747]

This video made me ravenously hungry.

[@madmedic809]

Just got done with this recipe as dinner, it was absolutely amazing! The gravy, everyone in the comments who has made this comments on the gravy and it is amazing. I need to tweak the recipe as cooked my rump roast for 3 hours at 300 in an enameled Dutch oven and it turned out well done. Used a dry English cider to deglaze and that turned out just great. I need to dig through more videos to find a period starch to add to this, if not directly into it. I’m thinking of potato cakes? I’m going to try more of these recipes now. Seriously, love these videos.

This channel is great because even if you cook these meals the conventional way, they are great, hearty home fashioned meals regardless

[@BD-xn2dp]

I shouldn't have watched this stoned. The whole time I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the Mochicans to storm out of the woods and massacre this poor man.

[@VOOODOOO37]

LMAO

[@wooddakid1]

Hilarious

@Cuthbert Bracegirdle no, I mean Mr. T

[@BD-xn2dp]

@CR of course it depends upon the era. There was a time when the Iroquois, Cherokee & Shawnee all sided more with the French against the colonists and the only friend they had from a Native American standpoint was the Catawba tribe.

1:23 No one else hear a moan of 'Oh yeah' as he rubs that meat? I can't be the only one.

[@joelarun6190]

YES LOL

[@Fragrantbeard]

President House I said "oh yeah" when you said he rubs his meat!!

[@censusgary]

What? No nutmeg?

[@jessicacanfield5408]

I set that would be good. I had a soup and stew cook book and one recipe said to add cinnamon to the beef stew. Boy was it goid

[@TheFLOMAN76]

Love my Dutch Oven! I'm always looking for a new meal or a different approach to an old recipe to cook in my ol beast. There is nothing like the taste that comes from cooking out of one of these old school ovens. Mmmmm!!!

[@carolgarber5209]

The "gunk" in the bottom of the pan is called Fond. I wish it was winter time so I could make this and smell it cooking. You're killing us. Love to all.

[@brennantimmins3239]

what is small beer?

[@townsends]

Keep you eyes out for a special Q/A video coming up soon where I ask the brewmaster at Genessee Country Village about small beer.

[@bstrunk57]

Low alcohol

[@tinamarie3653]

I remember when younger there was low beer and high beer. The low beer having less alcohol content.. better for cooking etc..

[@penzalo4119]

its a new born beer bottle

[@howardfortyfive9676]

Like most Asians?
