Pot Roast in Foil

SUBMITTED BY: LBEECH PHOTO BY: GodivaGirl

"The best, no fail way to cook a roast. I give this recipe to all new brides, and they and their new husbands love it!! You can add cubed potatoes and sliced carrots to the roast before sealing it in foil, but I like to serve it over mashed potatoes and gravy. Also, you could substitute using a four pound bone-in roast."
