Return roast to pot, cover with parchment paper and place in the oven for 2½ hours or until a knife easily pierces into meat. Remove pot from the oven and allow roast to cool in sauce. Once cool enough to handle, remove roast from the pot and strain the sauce into a sauce pan. 

Place the sauce pan over low to medium heat and reduce slightly.Slice meat against grain and place in a 9x12 baking pan. Pour sauce over the roast, place pan in oven for 5 minutes and serve.
