The four things I did different from the original recipe was><br/>1) I used a roast already thawed.<br/>2) I used one can of cream of mushroom soup instead of two ( it really depends on just how much gravy you want). <br/>3) Also about halfway into the cooking process I put one bay leaf in.<br/>4) I used fresh mushrooms instead of out of a can.<br/><br/>This is a very simple recipe to make ....and delicious!<br/>Along with the roast.... I cooked a bake potato cut it open and added a little butter, then I took the juice or gravy from the crock pot (after cooking the roast of course) and drizzle it on the potato ( wow it was good )! -
10 Stars for this delicious recipe. My husband made it since I had to work on Saturday. The flavor was so good and the meat soooo tender. We couldn't quit ohhhhing and ahhhhing over this. My husband did add 3 cloves of garlic,we love garlic. Will be making this often. Thanks for a such a terrific and easy recipie, trishypie. -
The USDA says that cooking beef from frozen is OK, but NEVER in a crock pot. The temp is so low that the cold of the meat prevents it from getting to a safe temperature fast enough to prevent food poisoning. -
This was delicious, it was very easy and came out moist and tender. I only had a 3lb. roast so just used 1 can of soup, I also added about 3 cloves of garlic rustically chopped and about 1/4c. of cream sherry. The gravy was delicous and I rubbed the soup mix on the roast and it gave it a great flavor. Thank you for this delicious and easy recipe, it is a keeper.

As long as you make sure the entire pot is heated above 140 for 15 min (beef cook temp is really only 135 but potatoes are 140) you should be ok. (It's when cooling food you have to be careful... Especially if it's cooked first, but "ready to eat" cold. Like guspacho soup or Chicken (for chicken salad). Heat kills bacteria, medium temp range grows it, freezing hinders growth and spread but; sometimes preserves bacteria and sometimes kills it. chili in some restaurants is actually made from week old hotdog and hamburger extras. Recooking the food will kill the bacteria and reset the shelf life of the old meats.

<p>My love for cooking started as a child when I used to help my mom prepare meals for our family and friends. Her passion for cooking showed me the importance of serving through opening our home and our kitchen to others. <br /> <br />As an adult I've had the opportunity to try many ethnic foods; which I love and enjoy cooking. I've enjoyed trying new recipes on Zaar and look forward to posting more of my own creations for others to try. <br /> <br />The great outdoors and entertaining are a few of my favorite pass-times. Thanks to Zaar, these events are made easier with innovative ideas and quick, easy meals. <br /> <br />My next goal is to find some good OAMC recipes which will make my busy life a little more organized!</p>
