Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (4 pound) beef chuck roast
2 onions, sliced
¼ cup honey
¼ cup white sugar
2 lemons, juiced
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
salt to taste

Steps:

Heat oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir roast and onions in hot oil until roast is browned and onions are soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir honey, sugar, lemon juice, black pepper, cloves, and salt into pot.
Bring roast mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer, turning roast every 45 minutes, until roast is tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Remove the cover and continue simmering until cooking liquid reduces, about 15 minutes more.
