Preparation:

Tie beef tenderloin roast with heavy string at 2-inch intervals.

In a Dutch oven or heavy stockpot, brown roast in oil over medium-high heat until all sides are browned. Pour off drippings.

Add water, broth, wine, garlic, marjoram, peppercorns and cloves. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 10 minutes per pound. Temperature should register 130° F. Do not overcook. Remove roast to serving platter. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and let stand 10 minutes before carving.
