Always a good way to make roast beef. I also add additional water (about 1 c.) to make extra gravy. I like adding 2 cloves minced garlic too, for extra flavor.

We just had this recipe for our "Easter Dinner". It was fabulous. Everyone loved it. At first I was a little worried that the mushroom soup would make it taste like a typical mushroom soup recipe (the ones where you just dump mushroom soup over almost anything) but it was amamazing. No one even knew that there was mushroom soup in it. I added an onion sliced and about a cup of sliced mushrooms to it. I also made it in the oven on about 300 degrees for about 4 hours instead of the slow cooker. I couldn't believe how tender it was. Will definately make it again and again and again..........

My boyfriend is incredibly picky with food. He ate so much of it, I only got one serving! I added some water and a little bit extra beef broth.

Very easy. Many complained about the salt, so I bought one regular can of soup & one 25% reduced sodium can. Though, I never had any salt problems, it was perfect & I don't think it mattered what cans I bought. However, I did make modifications, an extra cup of beef broth for more gravy & I added pearl onions, carrots, 3 stalks of celery & some sliced mushrooms about 45 minutes before it was done. It only took 6 hours to cook & I sprinkled a little parsley on top & served with mashed potatoes.

I am giving this 5 stars for the simplicity. I thought the taste could use something,so I added garlic and onions. I used regular cooking wine. I also used about an extra cup of beef broth because I knew we would want extra gravy, so I thickened it with corn starch at the end. Overall its great tasting and very easy!

I used one can cream of mushroom and one can of cream of chicken (thought I had 2 cans cream of mushroom) added the onion soup mix and used beef broth. Was a great meal with mashed potatoes, and french bread.

This is a great and simple recipe!! I added onions and garlic and used one can of cream of mushroom and one can of the cream of mushroom/chicken mix because I opened that can by accident - it still turned out absolutely delicious! I served it over mashed potatoes - perfect!

This is similar to the one my mother in law has made for 30 years. She uses 2 cans of cream of celery with one envelope of onion soup mix. I rub the roast down with the soup mix and put the cream of celery soup on the top. Thats it, no sherry. Its so tender and moist! I'll be making this for the next 30 years too!

Wow, the taste of the sherry really came out in this. Probably becasue the rest of the flavor was so bland. I'll stick to the old way of doing my roast.

This recipe was excellent. I added one can of golden mushroom soup (found at Publix), which made a huge difference. I poured both soups and the broth in the crock pot, mixed them with a fork, and then put in a beef roast and cooked it on high for ~8 hours. For new cooks: any large chunk of "stew" beef works well in a recipe like this one.

I used beef broth instead of sherry, and added carrots and cubed potatoes. This is so easy, and delicious, lot's of flavor. Have made this recipe time and time again on long work days so my family can have a good dinner.

This was excellent. Since my family likes a lot of gravy, I used an entire can of beef broth, in addition to the 1/3 cup of sherry and mushroom soup. For extra flavor, I also added 2 garlic cloves.

This was awful! The roast was dry and the flavor was blah. My husband barely choked it down. I was looking for something easy, and this certainly was, but it was terrible. In addition, it was an awful mess to clean up in the crock pot as the soup burned to the sides.

This was very good. But I added 1 can of beef broth to this. Otherwise it would be way too salty. This way you have more gravy, too. Meat was tender and very very good. Thank you.

The flavor on this is so awesome, however, I am only rating it a 4 because it was a bit salty. Perhaps next time I could try using reduced sodium products or throwing a raw potato in the liquid while it is cooking (I know this works for stew but not sure how it would work with a roast). Otherwise very tasty and fork tender.

This was fantastic! And super easy! The pot roast was so tender it fell apart on my fork and just melted in my mouth. Has a wonderful flavor! The gravy was the perfrct compliment to my garlic mashed potatoes. Superb!
