Instructions
- In a Dutch oven, brown roast in oil on all sides. In a small bowl, combine the wine, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and bouillon; pour over roast.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 45-60 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°, basting occasionally with pan juices.
