Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Trim fat from sides of roast.
Rub roast with black pepper.
Heat olive oil in large pot or large casserole safe for stove & oven. After heated, brown roast for several minutes on each side, browning well.
Pour in stock, wine, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and garlic.
Stir in onions, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, & Italian dressing.
Bring to a simmer on the stove. Transfer to oven, covered, and bake for 2 1/2 hours. Make sure roast is on bottom. For larger roasts, uncover and bake an additional 1 hour.
