Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 lbs beef roast

- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 onion, chopped

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
- Season the beef roast with salt and pepper.
- In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the beef roast on all sides until browned.
- Remove the roast and set aside. In the same pot, add chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until softened.
- Pour in the cranberry juice and balsamic vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
