Sweet Honey-Garlic French Roast

This succulent meat has lots of tasty ingredients in its marinade, which lend sweet notes to this main dish. Don’t raise your eyebrows at the prunes; you can opt to leave them out, but
they add an intense tangy flavor to the roast and are worth including.

10h 10-12
Easy Gluten Free Meat Freezer-Friendly

Contains: Soy

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients into a two-gallon ziplock bag. Massage the marinade into the meat on all sides and refrigerate. Allow to marinate at least six hours, but no more than 24.

  2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius).

  3. Pour the contents of the bag into a large roaster pan and cover tightly.

    Bake for three and a half hours. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Refrigerate

    roast; when cooled, slice.

  4. Pour the gravy over the roast and reheat for 30 minutes, spooning

    onions and prunes over each slice of meat when serving.

Tips:
We recently printed a tip about microwaving honey to bring it back to liquid state. What I like to do is put the jar of honey in a bowl of hot water and it works perfectly. Try that instead!

Notes:
This roast freezes well. After cooling completely store the roast in one container and the onions, prunes, and gravy in another. Thaw overnight in fridge before reheating; gravy can be spooned over slices when serving.

I made this roast and it was delicious! When the roast is done cooking I removed it from the pan to let it cool. With an immersion blender I blended whatever was left in the pan (water, onions, prunes...) - it creates a delicious gravy sauce to pour over the meat when serving.

Yes, you can freeze this once cooled. Just wrap it really well and freeze as needed! Defrost in your fridge overnight and then reheat it covered.
