My family loves this tangy, slow-cooked beef roast with gravy. We always hope for leftovers that I turn into a tasty sandwich spread.—Deborah Dailey Vancouver, Washington

this is sooo good! and the left-overs are just as good!! I mixed in some bbq sauce one night and served it on buns, taco sauce and salsa the next and served on tortillas.

I have tried a few pot roasts, and never actually made one until i saw this recipe. It was delicious! My husband loves fast food, and rairly likes anything homemade, but this pot roast was delcious. He wants it again! The gravy was lovely, but i put more beef stock in so i got a little more gravy out of it. It just used the juices that were left as the gravy. It was already thick and flavorful so i didn't bother with the cornflower step.

I tried this recipe as my first attempt at a pot roast. The meat came out very tender and moist and the gravy is rich and tasty, but possibly a little salty.

OOOOOPS! My rating was supposed to be 5 Stars - somehow it got changed to 2 stars just before I clicked "submit!"
This roast and the gravy turned out excellent! I modified to work with my 3-1/4 lb. rump roast, trimmed, and cut in half. I used my oval 4-qt. slow cooker. I only used 2 Tbsp total of the vinegar: 1 Tbsp to rub on roast and 1 Tbsp added to the soup mixture. I used 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp pepper. After browning, I placed1-1/2 tsp. minced garlic and 2 bay leaves on the roast, and used a medium onion, sliced. I kept all other ingredients at the recipe's measurements. After 8 hours, I kept the roast in the cooker, added the cornstarch and water, and turned the cooker on high. After 20 minutes I removed the roast and set it aside, covered with tin foil. The gravy cooked for about 10 more minutes. All was good! -Lori in WI.
