11 1/2 # whole bottom round Roast
Dani
03/01/07 		My oving husband found a HUGE piece of meat that appeared to be a good deal ( There are 6 of us that I cook for daily).
However this roast is 11 1/2 #'s I am thinking of slow gooking it whole and then once done seperate for Quick meals during the weeks to come.
My dilema is this it's 11 1/2 # how long do I slow cook it for (it's whole).
I am thinking of using a cooking bag to hopefully ensure that it is tender.
Help if you can I will greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

See the meat base recipe in the once a month cooking section. If you do it whole, a cooking bag is a good idea, you want moisture and plennty of onions and seasonings added. I would do it at 250, about 50 minutes per pound.
