Happy Thanksgiving to you and Michelle. Welcome back. Thank you for inspiring me to cook delicious food, and impress my friends and family.

What I really appreciated about this is that Chef John made it in a pan that also serves as an individual serving dish.

I use a ceramic Dutch oven bottom from Emile Henry which I find works better than any cast iron product that I've used. It seems to heat more evenly and is good on the stovetop, oven, or my grill.

This is exactly the way my Mom taught me to make pan gravy over 50 yrs ago. I went on and made this for my kids and taught them how to make the gravy also. Mom didn't roast onions and mushrooms in the pan, she roasted potatoes in the pan with the beef, then cooked the onions and mushrooms separately later. When we were especially good (?when was that?) Mom also made Yorkshire puddings to go with this. Then we for sure didn't have leftover gravy.

Chef John, I made this and it was a HIT! The gravy was actually amazing, I got lots of compliments. Thank you very much!

The doneness was perfect for me. Every time I try doing round steak it's tough, thanks for showing a new way to try.

Chef John!!! I’ve been watching you for over 10 years and taught me how to cook pot roast in my first apartment when I was in college. I love how you’ve used the same intro song in all your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!!🙏🧡

Happy to have you back John, been missing that dry sense of humor, and of course those really tasty recipes.

This looks SO GOOD!!!

Thank you Chef John for thinking of the beginners! 🥲

Hmmm.... Looks so delicious! I should know better than to watch Chef John when I am hungry.

Welcome back Chef! This looks delicious - will def give this a try

My husband and I aren't big "Ham" fans and we're generally Turkey-d out by December - Thanks for giving us another Beef recipe to add to the repertoire!

the gravy and mushrooms look amazing.. especially with beef

I am 100% trying this!

Deeeelicious. And can you imagine the fabulous hot beef sandwich coming down the pike? Ohhhh yes. 😋👍❤️

With a bunch of horseradish, arugula, melted swiss on a crusty roll, ooooooo

Every step looked delicious 🤤

Made three (3!) of these on Christmas Day...and I don't usually make beef. I dry-brined for 48 hours, seared off then had 2 in a roasting pan and 1 in a cast iron pan, deliberately cooked one a little more well since I had a variety of palates. All three came out very tender; I'd say they were cooked in the "medium" range. The gravy was a nice touch to the Chef John Au Gratin mashed potatoes...highly recommend preparing both together. I'm soaking in the compliments as we speak but the credit goes to Chef John. I'm no rookie in the kitchen but these vids gave me the chutzpah to prepare them on the "big stage". Merry Christmas!

I can't wait to make this. Looks amazing. Thank you.

Will definitely try it soon. Thanks Chef John. I've already made so many wonderful dishes from your channel! ❤

Happy Holidays, CJ. Hope you and Mrs. CJ are happy and healthy. Thank you for teaching us so many things throughout the years. You've made a tangible difference in a lot of peoples' lives and we're grateful.

Your recipes never ever disappoint!!! I do all of my tougher cuts of beef minus chuck this way and it’s just perfection.

Thanks, Chef John. You’re the best.

I’ve always heard that too and bottom round cuts are cheap but not very good. But maybe it’s my grocery store I got to but top and bottom round are just as expensive if not slightly more than beef chuck per pound at least

Much of the roasting beef I find in the UK lacks marbling, so this dry brining method would work well for me. I shall try it over the holidays, thanks Chef John.

This is a great recipe! I made this to feed my kids once a week when they were growing up. It's simple to make, you can vary it endlessly and it is also cheap!

Wow, I have to try this. I have never had much success with roasted top round. That gravy must be amazing. Maybe this will be my FIRST top round that I enjoy.

Looks amazing. I love a good pan gravy. Thanks, Chef!

Thanks for the salt, pepper, garlic powder mix ratio. I love these tidbits of info.

Made this today with a rump roast since that’s what my store had and it was great. That pan gravy is amazing.

Looks awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Nice and easy recipe by my most favorite chef!

Good Morning Chef, Just wanted to Thank you for another user friendly recipe. I used this recipe with a Tri Tip Roast and the Gravy was delicious. I couldn't believe how tender it was and how quick it was done! Perfect medium rare cook and rave reviews. Thanks again friend.

GORGEOUS dish.... just exquisite.

Thank you for the economical beef dish Chef John! Glad to have this recipe to make it tender, will try it. Never used to bother with London broil because of it's toughness.

I had to listen to the first minute 5 times to understand that he said ‘top round’ instead of cha-blahp. Love you Chef John! Keep us guessing.

You are so sweet to everybody! Thank you for breaking bread with us.

Thanks John looks good,

I made the Chef John Olive Oil Cake but added lemon zest and juice to the batter. Because I had lemon zest, I mixed powdered sugar with cream and added lemon zest to make a frosting. Came out very well !

Thank u, Chef.

Chef John, I've always been intimated by these kind of cuts of meat cause I never really knew how to deal with them. I tried this recipe tonight and it was absolutely brilliant ! I'll go out and say I even cooked it better than you on this one hahaha :P A nice medium-rare. The sauce was amazing and the smokey flavor from the onions is perfect. Thanks a lot for what you do, I was really proud on this one and it's all cause of you :)

It would be helpful to have a video about the different cuts of meat that would work as my market has half a dozen different kinds of "roasts" - since I am still a newb in this area. Thanks for this very good video!

That looks delicious! I made a stew with a top round roast, carrots and onions,, garlic, steak seasoning, herbes de Provence, and red ale, in the slow cooker, earlier this week! We thoroughly enjoyed it, but I'll probably try this preparation, one day, soon! BTW, the mashed potatoes au gratin were a huge hit! I made them on Thanksgiving!

I'm making this for Christmas Eve dinner!

I made this tonight and it was incredible! Highly recommend the recipe

I will be giving this a try soooon.

Thank you, I really appreciate this video. It's good, and VERY tempting, and I will yield soon... Top-round you said? so be it... let's try it.

Oh that dinner looks amazing!

How does this guy have so many recipes to never run out of?

Looks delicious. Definitely gonna "give this a try soon!"

Thank you so much chef, dry aging in the fridge works so well for low-end cuts, really appreciate you sharing the knowledge ! Enjoy =)

Perfect gravy, perfect doneness, perfect roast. There's my share, y'all on your own.

This is wonderful looking!

Loving that medium well. Makes it edible

Chef John is my saviour for dealing with tough cheap cuts. Also using shiitake for western-style dish is very much recommended.

. Cutting the meat ACROSS the grain definitely helps with the tenderness. Another excellent recipe and instruction. Dare i say "Well Done" ? .

Looks amazing.

We cooked this for Christmas dinner 2023 along with Chef John's potatoes au gratin and for dessert his mulled wine cake. It was a wonderful dinner.

Perfectly cooked for me , Yummy

Wow! What an amazing video and recipe! Chef John, you are the master of the KZread food video! Oh, and by the way, I lived for nine years in French Lick, Indiana, just off Larry Bird Blvd. I met his brother, once, though not him. Thanks.

Hope you had a great holiday Chef!

It's pretty close to a standard in our family. Excellent flavor.

Regardless of tenderness, I think I would still cut a hunk off, then turn it so I could slice against the grain for even more tenderness. Looks great! I may try one of thos cuts of beef.

So yum! Comforting and delicious and easy! Thanks, Chef John! Top 90 like (88th, haha). Here early today!

I did some research for thanksgiving day because I was tasked with making 6 rib-eye steaks on the grill. I found from J Kenji Lopez Alt is that in a blind taste test most people prefer a darker piece of meat than what they prefer. So cooking to medium is not only fine, the people eating might actually in fact prefer I that way. It helps when the guests are drunk and high ;)

Lovely British food. It needs to be served with Yorkshire Puddings, roast potatoes and seasonal greens for the full experience. And horseradish sauce of course!

Dear Chef John-I've always considered myself a clueless BEEFginner in the kitchen. Thank you so much for this personalized recipe.
