HOT AND SPICY ROUND ROAST

Makes 16 (3-ounce) servings
 

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 1/3 cup water
• 1½ tablespoons honey
• 1½ teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
• 3/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 3 pound beef round roast
 

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, combine ketchup, vinegar, water, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper sauce.

2. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 10 to 15 minutes to thicken slightly. Cool thoroughly.

3. Place roast in a large mixing bowl.

4. Pour cooked marinade over roast. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, turning roast occasionally.

5. Remove roast from marinade and place in a roasting pan; reserve marinade under refrigeration.

6. Insert meat thermometer and bake at 325°F until well done (170°F) – about 2 1/2 hours.

7. Remove roast from oven and let stand 15 to 20 minutes before carving.

8. Place reserved marinade in small saucepan. To kill possible bacteria from the raw beef, bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Serve over sliced roast.
