{'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Arrange onion slices in the bottom of the pot, then place roast on top. Sprinkle with peppercorns, allspice berries, horseradish, and bay leaf. Pour in rum. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until roast is tender, 3 to 4 hours. A good pot roast will supply most of its own juices, but as it cooks pour 1/2 cup water over it to make an ample supply of gravy.'}
