Ingredients

  • 1 (4 lb.) rump roast
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 1 tsp. oregano
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp. dry mustard
  • 1 head garlic

Method

  • Preheat oven to 375F and bake roast for 1 hour.
  • Turn the oven off, but leave roast in (don't open the oven door!)
  • Let roast cool in the oven for approximately 4 hours.
  • After cooling, place roast in a plastic oven cooking bag in a 2-inch shallow baking dish.
  • Add the garlic salt, pepper, onion powder, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and dry mustard to the 1/2 cup of beef broth.
  • Pour this into the bag.
  • Take one whole bulb of garlic and cut the top off, exposing the cloves.
  • Add the bulb to the bag.
  • Add water to the bag until the roast and other ingredients appear submerged.
  • Tie the bag up and cut two 1-inch slits across the top.
  • Bake at 325F for 2 hours.
  • Remove roast from bag and let cool.
  • (You can cut away any fat still remaining on the roast before serving.)
  • Be sure to reserve the cooking liquid!
  • Strain the liquid into a stock pot.
  • When beef is cooled (about an hour), begin to heat the liquid.
  • Add water if broth appears too thick.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes before adding the thinly sliced beef.
  • Let simmer another 10 minutes, then spoon into soft, Italian grinder rolls.
  • Top with your favorite sweet or hot Italian peppers.
