2 teaspoons Dried basil

1/2 teaspoon Pepper
1 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup All purpose flour

1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven; brown roast on all sides.
2 Add onion and cook until transparent. Add coffee, 3/4 cup of the water,
bouillon, basil, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper.
3. Cover and simmer for about 2 1/2 hours or until meat is tender.

ELAINE'S NOTE: I know this is not 'holiday', but it is different. I had a
boneless chuck roast on hand, and I gave it a try. I did de-fat it (something
that probably would not be necessary with eye of the round). I bet you could
do this in the Crockpot after the first browning...it is DELICIOUS and will be
a Radis Family favorite.
