🧄 Step 3: Build the Flavor Base
In the same pan, add butter, then sauté the sliced onions and minced garlic until soft and fragrant. If you’re using mushrooms or peppers, add them here and cook until slightly tender.
🍲 Step 4: Slow Cook the Beef
Place the seared beef into a roasting dish or slow cooker. Pour in the beef broth and add the sautéed onion mixture on top.
- Oven method: Cover with foil and cook at 160°C (320°F) for 2.5–3 hours
- Slow cooker method: Cook on low for 6–8 hours
The beef should become fork-tender and easy to shred.
🧀 Step 5: Add the Cheesy Goodness
Once the beef is cooked, shred it slightly (or leave it whole if you prefer slices). Pour the heavy cream over the top, then generously sprinkle the shredded cheese.
Place it back in the oven (uncovered) at 180°C (350°F) for about 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
🍽️ Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute and the cheese set slightly.
Serve your cheesy roast beef with:
- Mashed potatoes
- Rice
- Crusty bread
- Steamed vegetables
💡 Tips for the Best Cheesy Roast Beef
- Use well-marbled beef for extra tenderness and flavor
- Mix cheeses (like cheddar + mozzarella) for a perfect balance of flavor and stretch
- Add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or mustard for a deeper taste
- For a crispy top, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end
