This is a really flavorful roast,slow cooked in fabulous spices and red wine. I usually serve mine over noodles, but occasionally I'll change off to something else, like rice and recently I served it over garlic mashed potatoes, YUMMO! You'll find your favorite way too! Choose a wine that you would drink with the meal. Don't cook with a wine that you wouldn't drink yourself.

This turned out well. It was very easy to put together (I did it the night before) and I cooked it for about 8 hours. There was something a bit off about the flavor. I am not sure exactly what it was, and unlike Jezski, I don't think it was the wine. I used Gallo Paisano, which is cheap but is what I generally drink. No one else seemed to think it was strange or commented on it, so maybe it was just me. I did think there were too many onions (I used 3 1/2) and the sauce was very runny. I served this over rice with Recipe #24670.Reply

This is an excellent recipe except for one thing. I think the red wine amount should be cut in half. The sauce/gravy had a very tart flavor, almost along the lines of sauerbraten. It was difficult to adjust the flavor to our taste. Then too, It might have been the wine I used. BUT, I used an eye of round roast and the meat was so tender and NOT at all dry like eye of round usually is. So I WILL use this recipe again with the minor adjustment of less red wine. Oh, and the roast was done in about 6 hours. Fluffster, thanks for sharing! ~ JanetReply

I had high hopes for this dish but nobody at the table really enjoyed it. Our palettes just didn't enjoy the melding of these flavors. I can't quite put my finger on what would have made it work better for us but that doesn't mean it won't be a fabulous recipe for others.Reply
