Method · 1 h 40 min
  1. Preheat the oven to 250 °C.
  2. Leave the roast whole. Cut the top into squares. Carefully pierce the sides with chopped bacon.
  3. Peel the onion and cut it into wedges. Clean the mushrooms and cut them into pieces. Place them in a baking dish.
  4. Place the roast on top of the onions and mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil and rub into the meat.
  5. Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes without basting.
  6. After 10 minutes, pour water over the meat. Cover and reduce the temperature to 200 °C. Bake for about 30-35 minutes.
  7. Then uncover and let it cook for another 10-15 minutes, adding water if necessary.
  8. Remove the finished roast from the baking dish and let it rest. Add a little beef broth to the roast. You can thicken it with dark roux and let it bubble and cook in the oven for at least 15 minutes.
  9. Cut the meat into slices and serve with the gravy from the roast and mashed potatoes or boiled potatoes.
