When done, garnish round the serpent of mutton. STEW OF RUMP BEEF. Rump beef is the best part for stewing or braising.

Draw up the legs under the wings, and stuff the chicken in the breast. Grease a buttered paper, and lay over the baste frequently. Serve bread sauce in a boat. Time to cook, one hour. ROAST BEEF.
