    So I made this meal the other night (with out the veggies, I made my own veggies. It was a very tasty very tender meal. I sustained a pretty bad burn while cooking the meal and I can't say that it was worth it. How ever, even though I was a lot of pain I enjoyed every bite of this pot roast!

    I've been looking for a decent pot roast recipe forever. I think I may have found it in this recipe. My family and I are not fond of the crockpot versions where the meat could be eaten by someone without teeth, so this, sliced thinly against the grain, yet firm was much better. Loved the garlic in it - might try to stud it the day before next time, and would use what Emeril suggested (I held back a bit.

    Was very surprised that there was so much flavor from nothing but the meat, water, salt and pepper! My family was going to be a little late, so the meat was a bit drier than I'd hoped, but not ready to fault the recipe.I put it on low/simmer for closer to 4 hrs. Sauce was thin, added more salt and pepper and boiled it down a bit and it was very good!

    Family responded much better to this version than any other I've made before. Next time I'll do the roasted veggies - didn't have time to hit the store before making this, so used green beans boiled in bacon, onion, and garlic. Really looking forward to doing this again!

    Will repost after the next time I make this and everyone eats it when it's ready!

    Who would have thought an inexpensive cut of meat could taste so good with just water and meat?! Not me!! But times are tough and I've got to make do for
    my family. I'm not kidding you, just stuff with garlic cloves, sear the meat, add the water and cook for three hours or more and it's a done deal. So simple. I
    added chopped up sweet potatoes instead of the beets to the roasted vegetables and they become carmelized to perfection. Wouldn't change a thing!!

    I make pot roast frequently in my house but wanted to try this garlic lovers version. It was a hit! !I'm not sure why comments are saying it turned out blanned but if you marinate it overnight with the garlic, it will pick up the flavors more in depth. (Chopping the meat in large chunks also helps distribute the flavors in all the meat pieces I added a few more cloves to the roast and simmered it till the meat was tender enough to shred. Don't over cook this or it will get dry. I didn't have red wine so I used a white dry cooking wine. Next time I will double up the veggies since they tasted fabulous! The rice was alright to me since it was between a white rice and rissotto style here. I prefer white so I will make it like that next time. Leave the rissotto to mushrooms and cheese!!

    I made the pot roast as is and it was bland. However, I will say the roasted vegetables were wonderful. I added a little thyme to the original recipe and we could have just eaten the roasted vegetables. So I will keep the roasted vegetables portion and get a new pot roast recipe

    First try at potroast, although I am a big fan.

    Prep took 10 minutes. Meat was flavorful, tender and was not oversalted. I used homemade chicken broth, wine and a little bit of cola instead of the water. (Cola was an idea from another of Emeril's pot roast recipes, I figured it would add depth to the gravy and it did! Made a gravy after defatting the juices with a flour roux.

    I'll add herbs to the slits next time, too.
