Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F).

Season the Meat
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, and thyme. Rub the mixture all over the alcatra cut. Drizzle with olive oil and ensure it is well coated.

Searing
In a large oven-safe skillet or pan, heat a bit of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the alcatra on all sides until browned (about 3-4 minutes per side).
- 4
Roasting
Once the meat is seared, pour the beef broth into the skillet and transfer it to the preheated oven. Roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (55°C/130°F for medium-rare).

Resting
Remove the alcatra from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Serving
Slice the alcatra against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
