Ingredients

  • 1 (3 -4 lb) eye of round roast

Method

  • Put approximately 1/4 cup of oil in skillet, season roast with salt and pepper and brown on all sides.
  • Put roast in crockpot and add 1 cup of water or beef broth. Cook on low for 8 hours.
  • Remove roast from crockpot and let rest for 5-10 minutes while making gravy.
  • Place buns on a cookie sheet and brush tops with egg wash, sprinkle each with caraway seeds and coarse salt. Bake on 350 degrees for 3 minutes or until tops are crusty. Cut rolls in half and stack with meat on bottom half. Put 1-2 tablespoons of gravy on the meat and as much prepared horseradish as you like. Put tops on and enjoy!
