How are you planning to season and cook right now? And I'm sure some posters will add and tweak.

Oven....I'm open to anything, was just gonna rub in Montreal seasoning and pour worchershire and a little beef stock in it....is there another simple method I could use? Just wanted to try something different

Get your Dutch oven screaming hot & sear all sides. Remove roast, and sautée a mirepoix. Throw in a dozen cloves of garlic and a few bay leaves and any other seasonings you like. Add a good beer and Worcester, and reduce most of the way. Put roast back in pot and add additional beer until liquid is no more than halfway up roast. Cover and cook at 300 until fork tender, turning roast once. It'll take awhile.

That sounds pretty good, I haven't used beer but have done very similar with red wine. If you are looking for something a little different add turnips to the gravy at the end instead of potatoes.

I always stuff my roasts with garlic (not chopped or minced, whole cloves) and serrano or jalapeno peppers. The peppers are kept in the freezer. Fat jalapenos get sliced vertically into 4/ths and inserted into slits in the roast, followed by a demitasse spoonful of seasoning blend of choice (mine is Tony's). The garlic is treated the same way, stuffed into slits in the roast, followed by the seasoning. Staggered.

This is why I rarely post recipes. I tend to over explain. Sorry.

Look up Pioneer Woman's Italian Drip Roast recipe. Made it a few days ago for the second time. Big hit. Can be served over pasta also though I haven't done that.
