Sunday Pot Roast

"I have been making this for 20 years and people really like it. It makes a wonderful gravy similar to my grandmother's. Don't let the coffee scare you--it will NOT have a coffee flavor!"

  1. This was okay; am not sure the coffee addition enhanced anything. The pot roast was very ordinary, but the vegetables and gravy tasted good. We enjoy pot roasts #27208 and #51501 more--sorry, American in Paris, for not enjoying this roast as much as you do.
