3-4 cloves garlic, cut into thin slivers

olive oil spray

kosher salt, to taste

fresh cracked pepper, to taste

2 tsp dried chopped rosemary

meat thermometer

Directions:

Remove the grass fed roast from refrigerator 1 hour before cooking to reach room temperature. Using a sharp knife, pierce meat about 1/2-inch deep and insert slivers of garlic in each hole, pushing all the way in. Lightly spray the meat with olive oil and season generously with salt, pepper and rosemary. Place the thermometer all the way into the center of the meat.

Preheat oven to 350°. When the oven reaches 350°, place the roast in a roasting pan and put in the oven.

Roast until the thermometer reads 130° for rare, 140° for medium rare, 150° for medium, and 155-160° for well done. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest 10-20 minutes before you cut it so that the juices distributed evenly. The temperature will rise an additional 5 degrees as it sits.

nat·u·ral

100 percent natural badge | editable vector label

ˈnaCH(ə)rəl/

adjective

1.existing in or caused by nature; not made or caused by humankind.

"carrots contain a natural antiseptic that fights bacteria"

 

When Dierks Farms talks about eating all natural for 30 days what does that really mean? It means clean eating from local sources where you KNOW where your food is coming from. As the definition defines not caused by humankind.  Let nature play it's part in raising healthy food.

Natural farming is a complete different kind of farming that conventional farming which produces much of the meat and produce that you find in your grocery store. Natural means growing food the way God intended it to be. Cattle grown in the pasture, the chickens roaming freely and not in tiny coops, vegetables not treated with herbicides are injected with things we can’t even pronounce.

What goes into “natural” farming?  The main method of natural farming is to let natural take it’s course. We at Dierks Farms use the land that has been in the Dierks family since 1881. Our cattle are raised on the rolling hills of southern Illinois with green Dierks Farms All Natural Antibiotic Free Beefpastures and during the winter we use hay that is baled on Dierks land to feed our cattle. Why do we do this? We believe that cattle should to be raised slowly on grass and that steroids and antibiotics are never to be included in any meat that we would feed our own family and we know our customers are looking for this same benefit.

The world today is about growing things fast but fast does not mean healthy. Many times it means unhealthy. Our society now is seeing what this fast growing methods are doing to our health. It’s time to say “slow down”. We want to live a healthy life and slow is not bad. We at Dierks Farms know the real reason of why cattle are grown like this it’s profit. We believe that our customer health and ours are much more important to us than making additional profits.

It is not only beef that it is important to eat healthy. Buying your produce from local natural farmers as well as chicken, pork, goat, etc.  A great way to find local food is at your local farmers market. You can find farmers markets near you here. National Farmers Market Directory   You will find many different types of offerings by local farmers. Remember to ask questions to make sure that what they have are what you are looking for. Natural does not always mean grain free. Cattle can be raised on pasture grass but many times you will find that the last 90 days they will be fed grain to add fat and growth. If you are looking for no grain ask the question “are you grass fed and grass finished”.

If it is not possible for your to access a farmers market, take a look at this vegetable buying guide to help you buy quality vegetables.  When buying meat make sure and ask where your natural/pasture raised meat is grown at.  At many grocers you will find that the grass fed meat they are selling may not even be grown in the United States.  Please support your local US Farmers whenever possible.  They are working hard to bring you the very best product available.

INGREDIENTS

  1. 2 beef Dierks Farms Sirloin Tip Roasts (Approx. 3 lbs.)
  2. Salt
  3. Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  4. Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes (recipe follows)

Seasoning:

  1. 3 tablespoons freshly grated orange peel
  2. 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme
  3. 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
  4. 1 tablespoon coarse grind black pepper

 

Chocolate-Port Sauce:

  1. 3 tablespoons butter
  2. 3/4 cup finely chopped shallots
  3. 1-1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
  4. 1-1/4 cups port wine
  5. 1 can (14 to 14-1/2 ounces) ready-to-serve beef broth
  6. 3/4 cup whipping cream
  7. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  8. 3/4 ounce bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
  9. Salt and ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Combine seasoning ingredients; press evenly onto all surface of beef roast.
  2. Place roasts, in shallow roasting pan. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is centered in thickest part of beef. Do not add water or cover. Roast in 350°F oven 2-1/4 to 2-1/2 hours for medium rare; 2-1/2 to 3 hours for medium doneness.
  3. Meanwhile prepare Chocolate-Port Sauce. Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and thyme; cook and stir 4 to 6 minutes or until shallots are lightly browned. Add port; cook 5 to 7 minutes or until reduced by one half, stirring occasionally. Add broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook 15 to 17 minutes or until reduced by one half, stirring occasionally. Stir in cream and soy sauce; cook 3 to 5 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Add chocolate; stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Keep warm.
  4. About 45 minutes before serving, prepare Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes.
  5. Remove roast when meat thermometer registers 135°F for medium rare; 145°F for medium. Transfer roast to carving board; tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let stand 15 to 20 minutes. (Temperature will continue to rise about 10°-15°F to reach 145°F for medium rare; 160°F for medium.)
  6. Carve roast into slices; season with salt, as desired. Serve with sauce and mashed potatoes. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

    Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes: Peel 3-1/2 pounds all-purpose potatoes and cut into 2-inch pieces. Place potatoes in stockpot and add enough water to cover potatoes; add salt as desired. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook 25 to 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain well. Mash potatoes with 1-1/2 cups milk, 6 ounces softened goat cheese and 2 tablespoons butter in large bowl with electric mixer until smooth. Season with 1-1/2 teaspoons salt and pepper, as desired. Keep warm.

Test Kitchen Tips

  • Sauce may be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Reheat gently before serving. Do not boil.
