Spiced Pot Roast

“I ALWAYS looked forward to Sunday dinner at my grandparents' house, because Grandmother was the best cook anywhere. All her meals were delicious, but I especially loved dinners featuring this savory pot roast. It's wonderful with garden-fresh vegetables on the side and a dessert made with apples. -Frances Wilson, Tulsa, Oklahoma”

I loved this pot roast. I didn't use raisins and used pepper jelly instead of chutney, since I didn't have that and it was like an Asian flavor.Very good.

One word: DELICIOSO!! My husband and I had this pot roast for our Christmas Dinner, and it was delicious! We just loved the tenderness of the meat and the gravy compliment it so perfectly, yummy!! We loved it so much that we're having it for our New Year's Dinner as well. Thank you for this wonderful recipe! :-D

I've made this meal several times within a few weeks! It's a winner. Make sure to use a dutch oven or a slow cooker.

Best roast I have ever made, and it was just different enough than a traditional beef recipe that the family really noticed and loved it. I made a stew with the leftovers the next night (including the gravey that I made,) and the family asked for it again. They rarely do that. I don't think I added much in the way of seasonings to the stew the next night. I am now granting the request and preparing this again.

Very good. Did the whole thing in the crock pot except for browning ahead of time.

The family really enjoyed this pot roast. It was a bit sweet, but that sweetness, and the surprising combination of flavors suited a plate of rice perfectly.

Delicious! My husband and I love this recipe, very simple and has great flavor - we didn't have chutney on hand, and used dried cranberries instead of raisins. Yum!

I followed the recipe exactly and the meat came out lovely and tender. We like curry, but this sauce had a very strange taste. I ended up making some instant gravy to have the meat. Would not make this again.
