Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 boneless beef or venison rump or chuck roast (3-1/2 to 4 pounds)
  • 6 medium onions, thinly sliced, divided

  • 4 whole cloves, divided
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 10 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 5 to 7 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the beef and half of the onions, peppercorns, bay leaves and cloves. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 24 hours. To the remaining marinade, add the remaining onions, peppercorns, bay leaves and cloves. Cover and refrigerate.

Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Slice roast; serve with gravy. Yield: 6-8 servings.
