MEATS
To alamode a round of Beef.

To a 14 or 16 pound of beef, put one ounce salt petre, 48 hours after stuff it with the following: one and half pound beef, half a pound salt pork, two pound grated bread, chop all fine and rub in half pound butter, salt pepper and cayenne, summer savory, thyme; lay it on skewers in a large pot, over three pints hot water (which it must occasionally be supplied with,) the steam of which in four or five hours will render the round tender if over a moderate fire; when tender, take away the gravy and thicken with flour and butter, and boil -- brown the round with butter and flour, adding ketchup and wine to your table.
