How to make it
- Over high heat, pour sufficient oil to cover the bottom of a large Dutch oven or
- other large heavy pot (we use a large French enameled iron pot), generously salt
- and pepper both sides of the roast and sear meat until well browned on both
- sides. Remove meat and pour off oil. Return pot to medium heat and add
- chopped carrot, celery, onion and the garlic. Cook stirring, adding a small
- amount of oil if necessary, until softened but not browned. Sprinkle flour over
- vegetables and stir for 2-3 minutes. Return meat, adding water, tomato paste and
- herbs.
- Bring to a simmer on top of the stove, cover (use aluminum foil under cover if it
- does not fit tightly). Place into preheated 325 degree oven and cook for 2 hours.
- Check at 1 hour and turn meat if it is not covered by liquid; add additional water
- if liquid is too thick – it should be the consistency of thin gravy.
- At 2 – 2 ¼ hours, add remaining vegetables; the time varies according to size.
- Cook for a total of 3 hours. If the vegetables are not quite cooked, cover and let sit
- – cooking will continue using retained heat. Check for seasoning, adding salt or
- pepper to taste.
- Skim excess fat from the liquid, cut meat into serving size pieces, arrange on a
- heated platter and surround with vegetables. Moisten with some of the liquid,
- pass the remainder at the table and enjoy a true New England tradition.
