Savory Pot Roast

"RECIPE REVISED 9/11/05...I have always used coffee in my pot roast, something handed down from my grandmother. It acts as a tenderizer. One day I wanted a creamier broth and added soup to coffee with some other seasonings and it came out delicious!"

Reviews

  1. I have never given a negative review. But I feel I have to stop anyone else wasting a good peice of roast. The only thing I did differently was I cooked this in my crock pot. Otherwise I followed the ingredants to a T. This meal was awful. the smell was overpowering throughout the house. Everything {meat and vegs} tasted like stale {off} meat flavored coffee.Not one of my 5 family members would eat it. We ended up throwing it out. Because I could think of nothing I could do to "save" it. To the person who posted this please this is not ment to upset,just our honest review. I shall look up some of your other recipies and I am sure I'll find something we like:-) Bella.
