DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Have butcher trim all but a thin layer of fat from meat and roll meat like a rib roast (but without adding fat).
|
|
|
|
2:
Rub meat with salt and pepper and place in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer into center of thickest portion of roast. Roast in a very hot oven, 450°F, about 45 to 60 minutes until thermometer registers 140°F (rare), basting twice with the wine after meat has cooked for 20 minutes.

|
|
3:

|
|
|
|
4:
For sauce, pour off clear fat from drippings, saving 1/4 cup. Pour warm water into roasting pan; stir and scrape up all brown bits; strain. Heat the reserved fat in a skillet; stir in flour. Slowly stir in strained liquid, beef broth, and burgundy. Cook and stir until sauce boils and thickens. Add a few drops of gravy coloring, if desired.
