I followed the directions exactly, and I wasn't happy with the results. The roast turned out tough and dry, so I was really disappointed(especially after spending close to $10 on a piece of meat!). The veggies that I threw in were delicious, and the gravy was great, too. However, I think I'm going to keep looking for the perfect roast recipe.

I wish I had this recipe when I was a "blushing bride" nine years ago. I have never had much luck with pot roasts until I tried this recipe. Even my children had seconds and hubby said "wrap up the leftovers, they will make a great sandwich later." This is one I will definitely cook again. Thanks!

Meat turned out great. I covered the pan with foil instead of wrapping the meat in foil. Even my husband, who doesn't usually like pot roast, had seconds!

As good as promised. I browned the meat in butter over high heat first and just covered the pan (instead of wrapping the meat in foli). 3 people devoured it all - no leftovers. Delicious.

This was really good. I did not put it in the foil pack like the directions say, instead I just put it in my 9X13 pan and covered tightly with foil. I threw in pearl onions, carrots and mushrooms. I added about 3/4 of red wine to the soup mixture. I got lots of gravy, it was a bit thin, but thickened with some corn starch. I baked it for about 2 1/2 hours, it was very very tender.

This roast was very good, and really tender. I used 1 can cream of mushroom soup and 1 can cream of celery (didn't have another can of mushroom). My husband and 4 year old son loved it. This is the best roast recipe that I have tried.

This recipe is very easy! The only problem was the cooking time was too long, and it came out somewhat dry. Next time, I'll only cook it for 3 hours at the most.

This was fabulous! I doubled the mushroom soup and added two Tbsps of water, so I had lots of yummy gravy for the meat, as well as the potatoes, carrots and videlias I cooked along with it in foil. I used a couple of cloves of garlic too...it was great. Even my husband, who isn't a big fan of pot roast, loved it!!!

One of the easiest recipes around! It takes a while to cook, but is totally worth it--so tender. I always add potatoes and sliced onions, and it turns out very well.

Oh, boy, was this good! It was also very, very easy to prepare. My husband loved it, and I ate the left overs for three days while he was out of town. I added sweet onions, potatoes, and carrots around the roast, inside of the foil, and also doubled the gravy recipe, as others recommended. Also, I did not cook it as long as was recommended, only until a meat thermometer registered an appropriate temperature for medium rare beef. It came out very tender! My foil was apparently not tight enough to hold all of the juices in, but it ended up being a good thing, as the thinner juices that ran out were a perfect complement to the beef (almost like 'au jus'), while we thought the thicker gravy was excellent to pour over the veggies. This is a DEFINITE keeper, and I can't wait to make it again!

I don't typically prepare a lot of beef dishes, but I will definitely make this one a regular! So easy and so good -- you can't go wrong! Doubling or even tripling the gravy is a must.

Yum! My husband told me I can make this every Sunday! Only one thing I would note though - don't make the mistake of salting the meat. With the salt in the soup mix, you definitely won't need it.

Great recipie! Using foil beats the Nesco for taste and ease of cleanup. I was sceptical of the 4 hour baking time and took the roast out at 3 1/2 hours. It was just right. The meat, potatoes and carrots were just right. Next time I may add some celery and a couple cloves of garlic to enhance the flavor a little. Great job!
