Recipe View Slice the beef roast against the grain and serve immediately, spooning the flavorful gravy over the top. Serve with mashed potatoes, crusty bread, or your favorite sides.

For an even richer flavor, sear the roast the day before and refrigerate overnight.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as potatoes or parsnips, during the last hour of cooking.
If you don't have allspice berries, a pinch of ground allspice can be substituted.
The resting period is crucial for allowing the juices to redistribute throughout the roast, resulting in a more tender and flavorful final product.
