How to Make Boliche Relleno Stuffed Boliche Eye Of The Round Roast

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb diced ham, 1/2 lb chorizo (removed from casings), 2 chopped carrots, 6 hard-boiled eggs (chopped), and 1 green bell pepper (chopped).
  2. Season the mixture generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika (adjust to taste).
  3. Make a series of slits in the eye of round roast (approximately 3 lbs) to create pockets for the stuffing. Carefully spoon the stuffing mixture into the slits, ensuring that the roast is evenly filled.
  4. Optional: Marinate the stuffed roast in a mixture of olive oil, orange juice, garlic, and sofrito for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, in the refrigerator.
  5. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Place the stuffed roast in a roasting pan and add about 1 cup of beef broth to the bottom of the pan.
  6. Roast for approximately 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Baste the roast with pan juices every 30 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with your choice of side dishes such as black beans and rice, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
  8. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving, if desired.
