INGREDIENTS

• 1 (2-3 pounds) Strandquist Family Farm Chuck, Arm, Cross Rib Roast or Sirloin Tip Roast

• 3-4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, divided

• 2 tablespoons Steak Seasoning

• 1 tablespoon Steak Sauce

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, butter or lard/tallow

• 1 cube beef bouillon

• 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

• 1 (14 ounce) can dice tomatoes or 2 fresh tomatoes, optional

• 1 teaspoon dried oregano, or to taste

DIRECTIONS

• Step 1

  Rub roast with 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle on all sides with steak seasoning and sauce.

  Dissolve beef bouillon cube in the coffee and pour the mixture over the roast. Pour tomato sauce over meat and season with oregano; drizzle meat with 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce.
