Directions
- Place the roast in a resealable plastic gallon bag. Combine the marinade ingredients together and pour over the roast, seal the bag and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours.
- Remove the roast from the refrigerator, discard the marinade and pat the roast dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife make a slit in the middle of the roast lengthwise, twist the knife a little to form a small tunnel in the roast all the way through the other side.
- In a bowl mix together the chorizo, garlic and olives. Stuff the chorizo mixture into the hole that you just made in the roast.
- Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium-high. Season the outside of the roast generously with salt and pepper. Sear the roast on all sides until nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove roast from pan and place on a plate.
- Add the onions to the pan and cook until softened, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the water to the pan along with the oregano and bay leaves and scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release any stuck on bits.
- Return the roast to the pan. Bring to a boil then cover the pan and reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, for 3 hours.
- Add the potatoes around the roast, increase the heat to medium-high and return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender about 20 minutes.
- Remove roast and potatoes to a plate and cover with foil, allow roast to rest 15 minutes before slicing.
- if desired, boil the sauce down to thicken a bit, add salt and pepper to taste.
- Cut the roast into slices, serve with the potatoes and sauce.

Good flavors, I know eye of round roast is what is traditionally used in Boliche but a better cut of beef like a top round roast would be better.
