Mom's Roast

I call this Mom's Roast because this is how my mom always prepares her roasts! It is delicious with my Grandma's Chile Tomato Salsa (recipe to come soon... I hope!).

Mom's Roast
3-5 lb. beef or venison roast
2 onions, sliced
kosher salt
fresh ground pepper
1 T. Olive oil

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Heat olive oil in a dutch oven on the stove top over medium high heat. Season the roast with salt and pepper on both sides. When the olive oil is hot, add the roast and sear on both sides (about 5 minutes per side). Add the onions and cook until just translucent. Finish roast in oven for 2 hours or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
