Bear Roast

* 5 pound roast (all fat removed)
* 1 Tablespoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper
* 5 strips bacon or salt pork
* 1 medium onion, sliced (wild onion or ramps ok)
* 2 ribs celery, cut in 3" pieces (wild celery to taste - it's very strong so use 
sparingly)

Place roast in pan and season with salt and pepper. Lay 5 bacon strips or salt pork on 
roast.
Cover with onion and celery. Bake covered at 350 degrees for 3 hours or until meat is 
well done. To brown, uncover last 1/2 hour.
5-6 Servings
