Recipe Instructions

Here’s a detailed recipe for Texas Roadhouse beef tips:

Brown Gravy

Step 1

Take a bowl, submerge the beef base or bullion into the water, and set it aside for later use.

Put four tablespoons of oil into a saucepan and let it heat on medium heat,

After the oil is heated, add the flour and continue stirring it with a whisk. Keep going until the mix turns almost golden.

Step 2

Add the beef base or bullion mixture when the mixture turns blonde, then keep whisking.

The mixture will thicken upon stirring, and turn off the heat when it’s as thick as you want.

Add granulated garlic and pepper to the gravy, stirring it again.

Beef Tips

Step 1

Slice the sirloin steaks into cubes of approximately 1-1.5 inches in thickness.

Spray your grill with vegetable cooking oil.

Allow the grill to reach medium-high heat. This will take four to five minutes.

Season your steak generously with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Place the cubes into the grill. Don’t disturb them for at least two to three minutes.

After three minutes, take your tongs and flip the filets.

Wait for another two to three minutes.

Cook the sides of the filets for two minutes and then flip again to complete the grill marks.

Cook for two to three minutes more, and then remove the cubes from the grill while there is a faint pink line in the center of the filet.

Add the beef tips to the prepared gravy.

Mashed Potatoes

Step 1

Wash the potatoes thoroughly over the kitchen sink to prepare them for peeling.

Peel the potatoes entirely with a peeler leaving no skin on them.

Place the potatoes on a cutting board and cut them up. Ideally, they should be diced for consistency while cooking.

Place the diced potatoes in a large pot and pour enough water to cover them.

Step 2

Cook on high heat until the water is boiling, then turn the heat to medium.

Keep cooking the potatoes on medium heat until it is fork-tender.

Drain the water in the pot by dumping the contents in a strainer, and then return the potatoes to the container.

Step 3

Add the milk to the potatoes with ¼ cup of butter and mix them well with a whisk until you reach the desired consistency.

Add salt and pepper to the mixture to your taste. Ideally, this should be ½ tsp of salt and ⅓ tsp of pepper.

Mix the mixture well with a spatula, and voilà, your mashed potatoes are ready!

Mushrooms and Onions

Step 1

Wash the mushrooms thoroughly over the kitchen sink to free them of germs, and cut them as desired. Rinse again and allow to air dry.

Peel, slice and dice the onions into small pieces.

Step 2

Put a pan on medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt.

Once the butter melts, add salt and pepper as you prefer. Ideally, this should be ½ tsp of salt and ¼ tsp of pepper.

Step 3

Add in the mushrooms and onions right after seasoning.

Cook the mushrooms and onions on medium heat until all liquid is absorbed and the onions have a rich golden-brown color.

You may place the sautèed veggies in the gravy mix and pour the mixture on mashed potatoes.

How to Store Texas Roadhouse Beef Tips

Texas Roadhouse beef tips have a short shelf life because they are cooked meat and are susceptible to bacterial growth.

However, you can do some things to ensure you can use your beef tips for a couple of days.

Refrigeration

Retaining the natural juices of the cooked beef is also essential, as is stopping bacterial growth.

Let your beef cool down adequately in the open if you plan on storing it in the fridge.

However, don’t let it sit in the open for more than 1-2 hours.

Freezing

Freezing is the safest way to store cooked food since it eliminates bacterial growth.

Make sure to wrap the meat properly, so it doesn’t lose taste and dry out.

Please use a vacuum sealer or freeze-safe wraps for the best results.
