  1. Made this for 'Zaar Day. Smelled wonderful while it cooked in the crockpot. Was so tender and juicy you could of cut it with a spoon. Very nice gravy. I didn't have fresh garlic on hand, so I used the minced kind in the jar. Definately a keeper recipe!
     
  2. Great flavor! This roast just fell apart when I sliced it. Makes a lot of juice, which I'll used later this week as a soup base. I was afraid that it would be too salty with two packages of dry onion soup mix, but it was fine.
     
  3. Made this today for dinner. It was EXCELLENT! I will definitely make it again, and recommend it to my friends. Thank you!
     
  4. This is delicious! I coated the roast in Tony's seasoning before browning. I opted to leave out the bell pepper, adding carrots and potatoes instead. I will definitely make this one again.
     
  5. This was GREAT! I omitted the peppers-not a big fan of soggy veggies. Also I cooked on high for 2 hrs. and low for 4 hrs. It was still "fall off the bone."
