  4. With a sharp knife, cut roast between the strings into four 1-inch thick slabs.
  5. Season meat with salt and pepper.
  6. Working in 2 batches, cook roast in casserole over moderate high heat, turning once, until browned, about 6 minute.
  7. Transfer to large plate.

  14. Stir the remaining 1 tbsp butter into the onions in the casserole.
  15. Nestle the steaks into the onions (in the casserole), overlapping them slightly if necessary.
  16. Add allspice berries, peppercorns, crushed red pepper, and bay leaf and lay half of the reserved bacon over the steaks.
  17. Spread the remaining onions and bacon on top.
  18. Add the wine and the remaining 1 cup water and bring to a simmer, then cover and cook over moderate high heat for 5 minutes.
  19. Transfer casserole to oven and cook for 30 minute.
  20. Reduce oven temp to 250* and continue braising for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until steaks are very tender.
