Ingredients
  • 1 large Pike's Peak or other Roast
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 2 beers of your choice, I used a dark Killians
  • 4 peppercorns
  • dill
  • basil
  • 4-5 carrots, diced into bite sized pieces
  • 1 large onion, cut into large chunks
  • 3-4 yukon gold potatoes, diced into bite sized pieces
Preparation Instructions
  1. Rinse and dry the roast and place it in a bowl just large enough to fit it.
  2. Smear the olive oil all over it and then pour the beer over it. Marinade overnight or for a minimum of 1 hour - the longer the marinade the more flavor!
  3. Preheat oven to 320˚.
  4. Make 4 slits in the meat and insert a peppercorn into each slit. Then rub the dill and basil all over the meat.
  5. Place the carrots, onion and potato in the bottom of a roasting pan or dutch oven. Place the meat on top of the veggies and then pour the marinade juices over the top.
  6. Cover and roast until a thermometer inserted in the center of the meat reaches your desired temperature.
  7. Remove from oven and let the meat rest about 10 minutes. It's a great time to use all those yummy sauces at the bottom of the pan to make a delightful gravy...
