Tackling a Pinterest Recipe: "Best Ever Post Roast"


I made this "Best Ever Pot Roast" for my family yesterday. It was pretty good. It tasted just like any other pot roast I have eaten, but I also didn't a crockpot to cook it in.. so... maybe the flavor didn't soak in a well as it should. Above the picture I linked the original recipe, but I didn't not follow it exactly. I had to change it up since I did not have the crockpot.

First off I cook it in a turkey roaster instead of a crock pot. I had a 3 to 4 lb pot roast which I browned a little bit first. I use 2 packets a Ranch and 2 packets of Italian seasoning. I used one cup of beef broth, and about 4 cups of water. I forgot to put in the brown gravy mix :/ Haha. I also add some chopped onion. I put all the said ingredients together and cooked for 1 hour. Then I flipped the pot roast over and cooked for another hour, added the potatoes and carrots in in the last half hour. 

Like I said. I made changes to suit my needs. This modified recipe above may not work for you. Just click the link and work with the original recipe til you perfect it to you own liking!
