Preparation facts
Total Time: 2 hrs 45 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
1 beef round tip roast (4 pounds)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 to 3/4 tsp cracked black pepper
1 jar (12 ounces) beef gravy
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Green Beans & Caramelized Onions:
4 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 large onions, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
2 Tbs red wine vinegar
1 Tbs packed brown sugar
1 package (16 ounces) frozen green beans, cooked, warm
Directions
Heat oven to 325°F. Combine garlic and pepper; press onto beef
roast. Place roast on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip
is centered in thickest part of beef, not resting in fat. Do not add water or cover. Roast in
325°F oven 2 hours for medium rare; 2-1/2 hours for medium doneness.
Remove roast when meat thermometer registers 140°F for medium
rare; 155°F for medium. Tent with foil. Let stand 20 minutes. (Temperature will continue
to rise about 5°F to reach 145°F for medium rare; 160°F for medium.)
Remove rack from pan; stir in gravy, Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 cup
water. Cook and stir over medium-low heat 3 to 5 minutes or until bubbly. Carve roast. Serve
with sauce and vegetables.
Vegetables:
Cook bacon in large skillet until crisp; remove bacon. Pour off all but
2 tablespoons drippings. Add onions; cook over medium-low heat 35 to 40 minutes or until very
soft, stirring occasionally. Stir in vinegar and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat 1 to 2
minutes or until liquid is evaporated. Add beans and bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
