Sunday dinner should be a filling meal that everyone can enjoy to relax from the activities of the weekend and get ready for another successful week. Pleasing everyone in the family can be a challenge when it comes to meals, but this classic beef roast recipe is always a winner in our home. I hope you give it at try so you can add it to your repertoire of meals in your home as well.
