I always hated pot roast, but I figured I would try this recipe since it seemed simple and didn't include many ingredients. IT IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST POT ROAST I HAVE EVER HAD. It was so easy to make, and I think it's now my favorite meal. Thank you!

I don't know if I've ever posted a comment here, but I think I first made this pot roast 4 or 5 years ago. I haven't used any other pot roast recipe since. I try not to let anyone I love use any other recipe, either!

The meat and sauce are delicious, but ohmygoodnessthoseonions!!!!!!!! The onions are fantastic. If I had room, I'd slice up about 5 onions' worth, just to have the leftovers.

Thanks so much!

We just finished eating this. The meat was SO tender and tasty. I loved the gravy on the meat, but didn't care for it on the mashed potatoes that I made separately. It had too much tang. I put carrots in with the onions and they were delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

I love my Wolfgang Puck crockpot. Picked it up on Overstock.com. Can sear my meat, saute, and slow cook in the same pot. Wonderful

Hi...made this recipe Saturday. Wowserz it was yummy. We didn't keep it strictly Phase 1 and added baby carrots, mushrooms and celery into the mix. It was a complete, delicious meal. The leftovers are perfect for roast sandwiches for my hubby this week. Thanks for all your recipes!

K, I love the fact that you use ZipList. It is one of my favorite apps. I don't print out recipes anymore, but turn on my iPad and use the recipes right off the screen. Thank you for doing this...it really makes my day to be able to save your recipes all in one place...Linda Hester

Lily I haven't made it in the oven so I can only guess, so you must promise not to blame me if it doesn't turn out as well as the CrockPot version. I would brown meat and follow other directions as above and then cook in the oven on about 250-300F in a heavy dutch oven type pan with a tight fitting lid. I'm not sure how long it would take but I'd guess 3-4 hours, maybe a bit longer.

Hi Kalyn, I want to make this pot roast but my crock pot doesn't function properly. Is there anyway I can make this in the oven? if yes, what temperature and how long?
Thank you so much, Kalyn.

Cindy, so glad you enjoyed it so much!

i made this Sunday & OH MY WORD, it was the best pot roast i've ever had & made in my life! WOW! we didn't have leftovers, b/c there were seconds. it was so good i stood by the crock pot picking off the last of the meat around some of that fat...LOL! my daughter, who is 4, doesn't eat onions, but she devoured these onions as well as the hubby & i...so so so so so good!!!!!!!

2011-10-05T18:24:37.315-06:00

In general, the crockpot needs to be at least half full to cook properly, so you would need a roast that was a lot bigger. I don't think the timing would be much longer.

Hi there! All I have is a 5 quart crock pot. How should I change the timing/tempature on this roast? My roast is just under three pounds!

Sounds yummy, thank you!!!

Another fun thing to do w/pot roast is to shred it to make street tacos. I like to add beef stock, cilantro, lime juice, white onion, and salt and pepper and slow cook my roast in that. Once it is done and you take it out and cool shred your beef and you can either have it on some rice or in a small flour or corn tortilla with a little fresh cilantro and chopped white onion. Yum!

Holy Cow! This recipe was totally yummy! The only reason I wouldn't classify this as a diet recipe is because it is so darn good, you'll overeat on portion size LOL! (and I even burned mine a little and it still rocked!)

This is by far the best pot roast recipe I have ever made! I hadn't ever used a crock pot to make pot roast before. After making this for dinner, I'm definitely a convert!

I took another commenter's advice and used a 6oz can of tomato paste in place of the tomato sauce. I think it added a nice sweetness to the finished sauce.

2011-01-03T09:13:50.764-07:00

Thanks for the super quick response, Kalyn! I plan to reduce the balsamic vinegar and add a couple tablespoons of Worcestershire and a heaping tablespoon of brown sugar. I'll come back and let you know how it worked out! Just to be safe I think I will make the potatoes on the side even though I've seen recipes with it in there - don't want to mess it up!
