I got this recipe from my mom, a great cook. My sister, dad and I loved it when she made her pot roast. Later, I served this dish in our restaurant for many years. It's a recipe that just says "home cooking."

This is my favorite pot roast recipe. I found it years ago in Taste of Home. I looked in my magazine today and couldn't find it. Someone had clipped it out. So glad to finally find it again. It's the best ever and I've made lots of roasts in my day.

Our supermarket has a sale on the chuck roast so I decided I'd make pot roast for dinner, since it's been so cold.It had been so long since I made this dish that I came on to this website and found this recipe.It was outstanding and took almost no time to cook. I'm sure the leftovers will be even better.Thanks for sharing.
