"Tastes like the Yankee Pot Roast Soup at the Montanas restaurant chain (I'm in Canada) - thick, hearty and fragrant. I typically add more beef than the recipe calls for as I usually cut up a small roast. Tastes even better reheated. I freeze it in individual size containers to microwave for lunch at work. (Bring extra - your colleagues will want to try it!)"

I followed the recipe exactly and it's not very good. It's greasy and has a very, very strong tomato flavour.

This recipe is fantastic! It is so flavorable and easy to make. I love trying new recipes. I couldn't get the Maggi seasoning, but it was wonderful without it. If my husband loves it, that is the trick, and he did!
