My friends rave about the different taste the cranberry sauce gives to this roast, and I couldn't agree more. I've made the sauce ahead of time and frozen it, which saves preparation time on a busy schedule.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 boneless rump or chuck roast (about 3-1/2 pounds)
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 cups beef broth
1 medium onion, grated
pinch ground cinnamon
pinch ground cloves
cranberry sauce:
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1 small navel orange, peeled and diced
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Directions:
1. Combine the flour, garlic, salt and pepper; rub over the roast. In a Dutch oven, brown roast in oil. Add the broth, onion, cinnamon and cloves. Cover and simmer for 2-1/2 hours or until the meat is tender.
2. Meanwhile, combine the cranberries, orange and sugar in a saucepan. Cover and cook over low heat for 5 minutes.
3. Uncover and simmer until the berries burst and the mixture is thickened, about 20 minutes.
4. Remove roast and keep warm. Skim fat from pan juices, reserving 2 cups. Stir vinegar and reserved pan juices into the cranberry sauce. Slice roast; serve with cranberry sauce. Yield: 8 servings.
