What You'll Need
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (3-pound) beef bottom round roast, trimmed
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 4 cup plus 1 tablespoon water, divided
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- 2 rib celery, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon browning and seasoning sauce
What to Do
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour and pepper; mix well.
- Rinse the beef and place in the flour mixture while still wet, turning to coat completely. In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, turning to brown on all sides.
- Add 4 cups water, the bouillon cubes, celery, and onion. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to simmer. Cook for 2 to 2-1/4hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Remove beef to a platter and keep warm.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon water and the cornstarch; mix well. Skim and discard the fat from the pan juices. Add the cornstarch mixture and the browning and seasoning sauce to the juices and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
- Slice the roast across the grain and serve topped with the sauce.

- Fun Fact!
- The word "supper" comes from the Old French word "souper" meaning "evening meal". In some areas of the United States, dinner and supper are used interchangeably, but in other areas, "dinner" is a term used to mean lunch. It's interesting to learn how one word can mean different things in different places!
