<p>The flavor of this recipe was pleasantly different and quite delicious! DH and I really enjoyed it, even with a few changes! (He said it was the best pot roast he has ever had in his life!) I used sirloin tip beef (the recipe called for something way too expensive in the area I live in) and I did not have tomato sauce and used canned diced tomato. It for sure would have been thicker with the tomato sauce but diced was still very good for what we had. I served it over rice and there was just over 1 serving of leftovers left. With a side dish, this probably serves closer to 3 adults. It will definitely become a winter staple at our house. Thanks for the recipe!</p>
