My thoughts:

This pot roast was seriously amazing. Way amend than I stance pot roast could be. It was moist too tender too made its ain thick gravy. What to a greater extent than could I inquire for? It didn't gustation tomato-y despite all of the tomato plant paste, only rich too savory. The gravy was too then good, I used on the horseradish too sour cream-spiked potatoes I served on the side too wishing I had more. Really, words cannot clit how slap-up this pot roast was, it was convert a pot roast hater into a pot roast lover inward 1 bite. It is too a leaner too (dare I say) tastier option to brisket at Passover.
