OLIVE SURPRISE RUMP ROAST

Approximately 4 lb beef rump roast

1 jar (4-5 oz) pimiento-stuffed olives, drained
2 to 3 tablespoons canola oil
1 large yellow onion, thickly sliced
1 can (10 3/4-oz) condensed tomato soup
1 soup can of hot water

With the point of a sharp knife, make 4 or 5 crisscross gashes in a large circle as far in as the middle of each end of the roast. Using fingers or a spoon, open up the gashes and push 4 or 5 olives into each gash.

In a large Dutch oven, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the roast and brown completely on all sides (takes about 15 minutes), lower heat to medium if it gets too hot.

Lift meat and place onion slices under the roast. Stir the water and soup together and pour over the meat. Cover tightly and simmer on stove top or cook at 325 degrees in oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until meat is tender. Cool. In fact, this is good served chilled, so it makes a good picnic or tailgating meat.

Your guests will be surprised to see the olives cooked in the meat.
