This recipe is amazing! I made slight changes to the recipe. I put 4 cloves of garlic in the roast and then covered it with the boulion cubes, along with garlic salt, onion powder, and pepper. I did not add any onions with the vegetables and it turned out great.

The reason I gave this 4 stars is b/c I had to add A LOT of seasoning to get it to taste how I wanted. I did fresh rosemary, salt, season salt, pepper and about 1/4 cup lea and perrins. Next time I would also sear it first to lock the juices in. It got a little dry at 7 hours.

My family loved this dish. It was easy and very tasty! I added extra water for extra sauce. I tossed my meat in flower, salt and pepper & browned it before I placed it in the slow-cooker. Excellent for a cold, rainy-day meal.

I tried this recipe a couple months ago and although it had great flavor (I spiced it up more like others mention), it came out a little over done. I decided that I need a new crock pot since realizing that my crock pot is 18 years old. I just bought a programmable one with auto shut off and I'm trying the recipe again today. Will be back to review again. I'm a busy mom of two toddlers and I need easy! This recipe is very easy!

Excellent. I followed directions exactly until I added 15 crushed ginger snaps an hour before it was done. It thickens the gravy and tastes awesome.

I made it for dinner last night and everyone loved it! It really was so easy. Instead of beef bullion cubes, I used Garlic and Wine Seasoning from The Melting Pot and Lawry's Seasoned salt. I put in the carrots, onions, and celery and dashed the Garlic and Wine seasoning. I rubbed the beef with minced garlic and the Garlic and Wine seasoning and put it in the crockpot. Sprinkled some Lawry's seasoned salt on top, and instead of water, I poured over 3/4 cup of chicken stock. Since I didn't want the potatoes to get mushy, I cut them up and shook them in a ziploc bag with the Garlic and wine seasoning and left them in the fridge for 4 hours while the everything else was cooking. Added the potatoes under the meat with 4 hours to spare. It was tender and juicy and had great flavor. The veggies were perfect. Our dinner guests loved it and my husband kept telling me how good it was. We still have leftovers!

This was good, and easy, but it didn't have a lot of flavor. I added a lot including rosemary, a bay leaf, garlic, and a few other various spices to get some flavor. The veggies were good, but the celery was not cooked all the way through. This is a good base recipe, but needs modifications.

a great, easy way to make pot roast. This is how I make my roasts every time. If you can, don't put the potatoes in until halfway through the cooking time. If you leave them in the entire time, they'll turn to mush.

This was an incredible recipe. It pulled apart, the vegetables were not mushy and the gravy was so good. My boyfriend ate the baby carrots (he hates carrots) and even wanted to take it to work the next day! Here is what I did the night before...I cut the potatoes, onions and used baby carrots. I heavily seasoned them with garlic salt, seasoning salt, pepper and Lipton onion soup mix and put it at the bottom of my crock pot. (I have a removable dish.) I seasoned the outside of the roast with garlic salt, seasoning salt and pepper until it was completely covered with seasoning and browned the outside with some butter. I dissolved the 3 beef boullion cubes with one cup of boiling water and added it to the top of the veggies and then I put the roast on top of that and covered it with the top. I stuck the whole thing in the frig to marinate over night. The next morning I just took it out of the frig, plop the dish in and turn on the crock pot for 8 hours on low. FANTASTIC..my bestfriend and my boyfriend were raving about it! I'm making it for Thanksgiving in addition to the turkey. :)

Pretty good; served over rice; good leftovers; still prefer oven-roasted, but this is a good, easy way to do it. Thanks!

Turned out great, I seared the roast and added a little minced garlic and more water. Next time I will try the beef broth instead.

I gave it five stars for the five minutes it took me to throw it together and having a good taste that my whole family enjoyed.I've had better Pot roast but it took an hour with fine details in the recipe. We'll have it again soon.

This was so easy and so good. I made this on my lunch break and it was ready to eat when I got home! I used 1 cup beef broth instead of the water. I also rubbed some salt, pepper, garlic salt, and onion powder into the roast before cooking as well as sprinkling over the potatos.

I was nervous about making this dish, but since the recipe said "easy" I figured I would give it a try. The prep was so fast and "easy"! I made the recipe as directed, minus the celery. My slow cooker was boiling the juices on the high setting, so I only let it cook for 3.5 hours. It turned out to be very tasty and my "plain-food-lovin'" boyfriend even enjoyed it. Can't wait to make it again.

This was good for my first roast. It ended up very tender and pulled apart easily. I will add the veggies later next time as they ended up being mush and add some more spices as well. This recipe is excellent to try again and again until you have it tweaked to your liking! I am giving this recipe a solid 4 stars for coming out moist and tender but not 5 stars as the veggies came out way overcooked and it was a little on the bland side spice wise. A great basic roast recipe!

I would definitly would make this recipe again, but I might add some more flavor. The smell through the house and the hallway I me salivating at the mouth
