  A big hit!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I've never made a roast before and this turned out GREAT!! It did require more cooking time than the recipe (I used an almost 4 lb New York Strip roast). I also added just a bit of half-and-half to the gravy (mostly because it wasn't thickening well enough and I had a little warmed cream that I mixed with some cornstarch). Everyone loved both the meat and the gravy. Will make this again!!

  Slammin Roast Beef

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I have tried many recipes and almost always they require some tweeking. I was worried when I saw that he just used salt and pepper for the roast thinking it would be too bland. OMG!! This dish was the best roast beef ever. The gravy was to die for. Now if I don't want to make just the roast beef I use the gravy for meatloaf, and other beef recipes. The only thing I would say is that you HAVE to add the roast beef juice to the gravy. If not you will definitely tast the flour from the gravy. I love Big Daddy's show. It is delightful to watch and he makes me laugh. Keep up the good work.

  Easy and Delicious!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I really love how simple and elegant the dish is! This is a no brainer and the sauce is absolutely fabulous. I will definitely add this to my "go to" menus if I am stuck for a tasty and easy dinner idea. I did add shallots to the sauce -shallots always add an extra "oomph."

  Perfect Roast!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  The butcher cut me a piece that was about 2 1/2 lbs. Perfect for my family of 7. Easy, delicious and perfectly cooked!

  A "Keeper"!!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I made the Bourbon Mushroom Sauce today after watching the show. We had it with the steaks we'd already planned to eat for supper. It's wonderful! My husband said "this is a KEEPER! Print the recipe so we don't forget how to make it!". My kids liked it, too; I was concerned that the bourbon might make them turn their noses up but they loved it as well. I want to try it with Aaron's striploin roast, too, but this would be great with any kind of beef (or venison). I know I'll make it again and again. It couldn't be any better! I've tried lots of sauce and gravy recipes that just didn't quite hit the mark but this one is terrific!

  I Want to Try this Recipe, But ...

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  There is a missing part of the instructions for the Mushroom Sauce. After adding garlic, mushrooms and onion, cook for 4 to 5 minutes until nicely what? Like other viewers, I also find it a little annoying when there is a rating but the viewer has not tried the recipe. I now see that comments cannot be posted without a rating.
