What could I substitute for red wine vinegar in the beef roast? Apple cider vinegar??
Update (in case anyone else wants to try it): I ended up using 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar instead of the red wine vinegar, BUT I mixed in 3 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce into the vinegar before pouring over the meat. Followed everything else exactly and it turned out amazing!!
