The way to go with this recipe is LOW & SLOW. I seasoned this meat with 7 different spices, dredged it in flour, added 2 bottles of Stout dark beer & cooked it at 275 degrees F. for 5 hours. I put it on before shopping & running errands, & when I returned home the AROMA FROM THE FLAVORS was intoxicating, & meat tender. The gravy was thick, rich & a deep caramel brown, it was so tender & flavorful, I could barely get the potatoes & carrots ready to go with it. Bought some store bought bread sticks, & I tell you, this was a comfort meal to REMEMBER on a cold day in Illinois. Great meal
