In a Dutch oven, brown the roast on all its sides in vegetable oil over medium-high heat; drain. In a small bowl combine 3/4 cup water, the soup mix, vinegar and the hot sauce; pour over the roast. Cover and bake at 325' for 2-3 hours, or until tender. (Mine took 2 hours). Transfer to a serving platter, cover with foil and keep warm. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
