• Spray a dutch oven or large roasting pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place roast in center of pan and pour broth mixture around the roast. Place the sliced onions around the roast.
• Cover and bake 2 1/2 hours. At about the 2 hour mark prepare and cut your vegetables.
• Add sliced carrots and potatoes to the sides of the roast. Cover and bake another 1-1 1/2 hours (until vegetables are tender and roast is finished).
• Remove beef and vegetables from the roasting pan to a platter and keep warm (cover with foil).
• Skim fat from drippings left in the roasting pan and keep drippings warm (not boiling - just lightly simmering).
• Whisk the flour and water together until smooth. Add at very small increments to the simmering drippings and whisk constantly to keep smooth and lump free. The key to this is not boiling the liquid but keeping at a nice simmer. Continue cooking 2-4 minutes until it is smooth and nicely blended. Remove from heat.
