Directions:

  1. Lay the beef pieces a few at a time between sheets of parchment paper. Using a meat mallet, pound the meat to tenderize and break up some of the connective tissue. Season the meat pieces with 2 tablespoons of Essence and dredge in the flour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  3. Heat a large cast iron pan or a 3-quart braising pan over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot add 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan and brown the floured beef, working in batches and adding more oil as necessary. Do not overcrowd the pan with the meat. Cook the beef for about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. As the beef is browned, transfer to a large plate and set aside until you have cooked all of the beef. Add the butter to the pan and, when melted, add the onions, celery, peppers and mushrooms. Cook the vegetables, stirring often, until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Pour the red wine to the pan and scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to remove any browned bits that may have formed on the bottom.
  4. Add the veal stock, tomatoes, bay leaves, thyme, salt, cayenne and black peppers to the pan and bring to a boil. Return the beef to the pan and reduce the heat to a simmer. Place a lid on the pan and place in the oven. Allow the beef to cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for 2 hours, or until the beef is fork tender. When the beef is tender, remove the pan from the oven and stir the oregano and basil into the pot. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve with Baked Cheese Grits.
  5. Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
  6. 2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
  7. 2 tablespoons salt
  8. 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  9. 1 tablespoon black pepper
  10. 1 tablespoon onion powder
  11. 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  12. 1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
  13. 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  14. Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
  15. Yield: about 2/3 cup

  17. Baked Cheese Grits:
  18. 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter
  19. 4 cups water
  20. 1 teaspoon salt
  21. 1 cup quick grits (not instant)
  22. 1 egg
  23. 1/3 cup heavy cream
  24. 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  25. 1 cup grated Gruyere
  26. 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
  27. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart casserole with 2 tablespoons of butter.
  28. Combine remaining 1/4 cup butter, water, and salt in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. When mixture comes to a simmer, add the grits, stirring until thoroughly combined. Continue to cook the grits at a simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
  29. Meanwhile whisk together egg, cream and pepper. Stir into cooked grits along with cheese. Pour mixture into prepared casserole. Bake until set, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand about 5 minutes before serving.
