Seared Rump Roast

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
Put rump roast into large roasting pan and sear each side of roast for about 15 minutes until dark brown.
Add 1/4 cup of water to pan.
Cover with foil, reduce heat to 325 degrees and cook approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours (depending on the size of your roast), OR until fork goes easily into meat.
Remove roast from pan and let it "rest" for about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make the most wonderful gravy from all of the drippings.
