I went to college in New Orleans and fell in love with all things Cajun and Creole, whether it be gumbo, beignets, or jambalaya.
What Are Grillades?
Grillades (pronounced GREE-yahds) are a popular Louisiana dish made with either beef or pork slow cooked in a rich, flavorful tomato-based gravy. Traditionally served for breakfast or brunch, but also makes a fantastic dinner. It’s a great way to turn a tough cut of meat into a wonderfully tender one.
Type Of Meat To Use
When making beef grillades, it is best to use Beef Round Roast which is an inexpensive cut of meat that is a little tough. Slow cooking it turns it wonderfully tender.
How To Make Slow Cooker Grillades
- Brown the meat. Cut the steak into slices, dredge in flour and seasoning, and then brown it in oil. Add it to the slow cooker.
- Cook the veggies. Cook the onion, carrots, celery, and bell pepper in a skillet until softened some then add garlic just for a minute so it doesn’t burn. Add to the slow cooker.
- Add remaining ingredients. Add diced tomatoes, beef consume, tomato paste, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, Italian seasoning, thyme and black pepper.
- Cook. Cover and cook on HIGH 3 to 4 hours.
- Serve.
How To Serve
The traditional way to serve Grillades is with grits but you can also serve it over white rice or mashed potatoes. I also love some Yeast Rolls or Buttermilk Biscuits with it.
Strorage
Will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days. Or you can freeze the grillades for up to 2 months. Cool completely first.
