It was easy, but smelled and tasted like I had been working all day in the kitchen. We will do this one over and over. We had mashed potatoes with the roast because the gravy is so good.

I made this for my 88-year-old dad yesterday and he loved it. So did my brother. I added 1 can of whole mushrooms to give it additional texture and it was AWESOME. The gravy was a little runny at the end of 8 hours so I added a bit of corn starch mixed with water to the gravy and stirred it in after I removed the roast. It provided 2 full days of meals.
