Delicious Highland Beef Recipes
HHF Pot Roast
Ingredients
- HHF roast of your choice. We prefer chuck, arm, or rump roast, although a rump orast will take longer to cook
- Beef broth (or water is fine)
- Salt
- Pepper
- Any other seasonings you may like, but we keep it simple
Cooking Instructions
- Use a crockpot or roaster if possible, if not a covered dish in the oven will work.
- Season roast, and place in chosen cooking device.
- Add 1 cup of beef broth or water.
- If in a crockpot, turn to high heat. If in a roaster or in the over, set the temperature to 275 degrees.
- Cooking grass-fed Highland beef will take longer than conventional beef. Do not concern yourself with meat temperature. Instead, use a fork to test the meat. When the roast falls apart easily, it is done.
Chef's Note: You can cook the roast straight from the freezer or thawed. If frozen, it will take longer. Expect a thawed roast to take around 8 hours, and a frozen roast to take 10+.

Smokey HHF Brisket
Ingredients
- 1 whole HHF brisket
- 1 cup mayonnaise or substitute 1/4 yellow mustard
- Dry rub of choice. We prefer a blend of salt, pepper, and garlic powder
Cooking Instructions
- Take brisket and generously coat with mayo or mustard. This will act as a binder when cooking is complete.
- Cover the entire brisket with a coating or your rub.
- Preheat your smoker to 185 degrees and put brisket on fat side up.
- After 4 hours, flip the brisket over.
- Cook an additional 2 hours.
- Remove the brisket from the smoker and wrap in butcher paper or aluminum foil.
- Increase smoker temperature to 225-250 degrees and return wrapped brisket into smoker.
- Cook until internal temperature of meat reaches 205 degrees.
- Remove from smoker, place in a cooler and cover with towels. This allows the meat to continue cooking itself and liquify fat and connective tissue without losing moisture.
- Leave in cooler for at least 2 hours.
- Remove and place brisket on a cutting board.
- Let brisket rest fo 5-10 minutes.
- Slice and enjoy!
Chef's Note: Highland brisket is very lean so there is no need to trim any fat prior to cooking. Keep a close eye on is there is not much room for error. If it seems to be cooking too fast then skip to turning and wrapping sooner.
