Author's Comments

I know this is not 'holiday', but it is different. I had a boneless chuckroast on hand, and I gave it a try. I did de-fat it (something that probably would not be necessary with eye of the round). I bet you could dothis in the Crockpot after the first browning...it is DELICIOUS and a family favorite.
