How to Make Swedish Beef Roast
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef roast and brown it evenly on all sides. This will take about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Add 4-6 anchovy fillets (packed in oil, drained), 1 large chopped onion, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 bay leaves, 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons whiskey, and 1 cup of water to the pot.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and cook for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Check the internal temperature; it should reach 190-200°F (88-93°C).
- Once cooked, remove the beef roast from the pot and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Skim off excess fat from the pan juices. Serve the sliced roast generously drizzled with the rich pan juices.
