This was definitely a "keeper" as my family calls it. The recipe was very simple with an excellent taste. After reading other reviews I did add the red wine, crushed rosemary, and garlic salt. We are a family of 6 and we had absolutely no leftovers. We will be making this again and again. Thanks for sharing.

I tried this because my husband loves pot roast and I usually don't like it at all - this recipe sounded interesting. I LOVED it! My husband liked it, too, and it will be made again. We had it with mashed potatoes the first night and served the leftovers over rice - wonderful!

I Floured and browned the roast before placing it in the slow cooker. I also used beef broth instead of water, and I poured it in the bottom of the browning pan to get all the browned bits. It added so much! I only used one can of cream of mushroom soup. I cooked it on low for 9 hours, and it was tender. I made veggies separately. There are a few changes I will make next time, 1. I will try for a leaner cut of meat. There was still quite a bit of fat after I trimmed it. 2. I might try not flouring/browning it, and omitting the beef broth/water completely. Even after flouring, the gravy was not as thick as I would like it to be. Thanks for the recipe, very easy and the family loved it!

My family has been making this for 20 years with one variation, no water. Use 1 can of cream of mushroom soup for every 3lbs of beef and 1 packet of beefy onion dry soup mix. Combine the dry soup with the packet soup, it will be thick like mayo. Place meat in slow cooker, coat the meat with the soup mix, cover and cook for 6-8 hours on low. That's it. The juice from the meat will add the needed liquid to make a great gravy. No need for water or thickeners.

I use this recipe for company constantly. I always follow the recipe exactly - no need to mess with it! I make a gravy from what's left in the crock pot. It is best to cook 8 hrs. The roast can turn out a bit tough with less time. I always use RUMP Roast.

This is my go to recipe. I don't change a thing and it comes out perfect. There's only 2 of us so I usually end up freezing a portion. The leftover's are great. Very easy and very tasty. Thanks Brenda.

This is the best pot roast ever! My husband asks for it all the time. I use a can of beef broth instead of the water... and sometimes add carrots and potatoes. Excellent recipe!

So very good. I feel bad rating this since I didn't make it exactly as written, but it was delicious! I didn't have cream of mushroom soup (I thought I did since it is a staple), so I used one can of condensed beef broth and one can of tomato soup instead. It was delicious. I can't wait to try this again with the mushroom soup, it will likely be even better. Oh, and I tossed in some quartered potatoes for the last 4 hours of cooking and they were almost as tasty as the roast. I will be making this again very soon.

My family loves this recipe. I have made it with and without vegetables and it is best without vegetables cooked with it. Sometimes I just add some sliced onion but that is it. Very flavorful and I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans and rolls--Perfect!!!!!

Very good. I strained the liquid and added a corn starch and water mix to thicken the gravy. There was more than enough gravy for the roast plus a side dish. I ended up freezing the remaining gravy for future meals. Good flavor and the entire family loved it!

FANTASTIC! My husband is so picky, its taken us years to find a pot roast that he likes and this is the one! I gave it 4 stars only because I added some veggies and made minor changes. Like other reviewers I floured and salt & peppered the meat before browning it on all sides in a pan, and then put it in the slow cooker. I actually don't like cream of mushroom soup and I was a little worried the onion soup mix would be too much onion/too salty. I always try to follow a recipe as closely as possible the first time though, so I used them both but replaced the water with beef stock. It was such a delicious gravy, not too oniony or salty at all! I cooked this on low for about 6 hours, then I sauteed celery and carrots in the same pan I did the beef in- scraping up all those brown bits- and added them to the pot. I turned it up to high for the last hour or two and everything was cooked to perfection. Served with mashed potatoes, mmm. This recipe will be my standard pot roast from now on.

I'm giving this recipe 4 stars because of the changes I made. After reading several reviews, I combined a few based on what I thought my family would like. I bought 2 roasts which totaled close to 6 lbs. I rubbed each roast with a coating of flour, coarse garlic salt, and rosemary, then seared each in a skillet with extra virgin olive oil. I set the roasts in the slow cooker placed slices of half an onion and crushed garlic on top of the roast. I added some large chunks of carrots and celery in with the roast, as well. In the skillet, I kept the drippings from searing the roast and added 1 cup of beef broth and 1/3 cup of merlot. Then I added 2 cans of 99% fat free cream of mushroom soup and 1 package of dry onion soup mix. I mixed that well in the skillet and allowed it to simmer for a few minutes. Then I poured the mixture over the meat and vegetables in the slow cooker. Since I was preparing it for the next day, I stuck the whole thing in the fridge overnight. Before I left for work the next morning, I pulled it out of the fridge and cooked it on low for 10 hours. I served it to my family and some friends with roasted new potatoes and roasted cauliflower. It was a big hit!! Everyone loved it!!
