Roast Beef with Gravy

In a 16-quart roaster or cast iron Dutch oven, mix all the ingredients (excluding the roast). Dilute with water to the consistency that you like your gravy. Place roast in the gravy and spoon the gravy over the roast. Place in a 350F (180C) oven for 1 1/2 hours. Remove and turn the roast and place back in the oven for 1 hour. Remove the roast and slice in 1/4-inch slices across the grain. Place back in the gravy, cover and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

The roast beef will be tender enough to cut with a fork.
This is delicious served with mashed potatoes and fresh rolls or garlic bread.

Note: the roast can be from 4-6 pounds.
