Quantity for 6 Persons.
- 4 lbs. of meat
- 1 piece of fat bacon
- Salt
- 6 pepper-corns
- 1 bay-leaf
- 1 clove
- 2 tbsps. of suet
- 3 tbsps. of flour
- 1 tbsp. of red wine or Madeira
- ½ of an onion
Preparation: The meat—from rump, chuck or sirloin—is pounded. The bacon cut in small thick pieces is stuck into the meat, heat the suet, add onions and brown meat slightly on both sides. When this is done it is placed on a platter. Flour is browned in the suet to which water and the spices are added, and cooked. The browned meat is put into the gravy, which should cover it. Cover the pot well. The best thing for a pot roast is an iron pot. Put the covered roast into the moderately hot oven for 2½ to 3 hours, basting frequently. One-half hour before done, pour the wine over it. When done, take the roast out and prepare the gravy. Take off all fat; if too thick add more water and strain.
