Tips for Success
- Choose a marbled roast like chuck for extra tenderness and flavor.
- Don’t skip the sear — it builds deep flavor in the dish.
- Add a touch of brown sugar or maple syrup if your cranberries are too tart.
- Leftovers make amazing sandwiches the next day with crusty bread and a smear of Dijon.
Perfect Pairings
Serve Cranberry Roast Beef with:
- Creamy mashed potatoes or garlic mashed cauliflower
- Roasted Brussels sprouts or glazed carrots
- A glass of red wine (Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon)
- Warm dinner rolls to soak up the sauce
