Step 1

Slice onions in rings. Heat oil in a large oven-proof pan, like cast iron. Sauté the onions until golden, adding sugar to increase their natural sweetness.

Step 2

Once the onions are caramelized, remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

Place the pan back on the heat. Rub salt and pepper generously over the roast and sear it, top and bottom until it has a nice crust.

Step 4

Place the reserved onions on top of the roast and put the pan into a 400 degree oven. Roast, uncovered, for 1 1/2 Hours. Remove from the oven and allow it to rest 15 Minutes. Slice and serve with the caramelized onions.

Step 5

You can also freeze it sliced. Bring back to room temperature and reheat 20 Minutes in a 350 degree oven.
