    I left my house while it cooked and when I returned, oh my!! Every square inch of this house permeated with the most complex, mysterious and warm aroma! My mother and I couldn't wait to open and cut in and it didn't disappoint! If you want to make a roast that will make you look like a Top Chef, serve this EASY recipe and they will be singing your praises! ENJOY FOLKS!

    I made this for Sunday dinner today. It was spectacular. The positive reviews are all true, it makes a ton of sauce, but it is so good, we are all thrilled with that. While the recipe is easy, it is labor intensive.

    I did make a few revisions. I reduced the amount of salt the recipe called for by half, and I omitted the entire bouillon cube entirely to make it MSG free. For us, it was perfect.

    The flavors were very complex and bold. While the roast itself was good, I'm more impressed with the sauce, and I can imagine eating it over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or even with a chunk of hearty bread and a glass of merlot as a stand-alone meal.

    Made Ina's Company Pot Roast for the 1st time on 11/29/12 for my 8 yo son's b'day! Yes, he wanted pot roast! My MIL & I caught the episode that showcased this recipe & I've been dying for pot roast (had enough Turkey leftovers! It is the BEST pot roast I've ever made! We call it fancy pot roast! Followed everything except didn't buy tied roast but "regular" pot roast. Rave reviews from my family, all 3 kids too! Had a ton of sauce left, but like others have mentioned...that is a GREAT thing!! I too thought salt wld be an issue, but was not. Thanks for another great recipe. This is a keeper. We will have again I think for a casual Christmas dinner, but will get the tied pot roast!

    I don't usually use a written down recipe when I make pot roast, which I do in a crock pot, but when I saw Ina make this I thought it was similar to mine but I liked the things she did that were different to mine. And since I just acquired a dutch oven I thought this would be a perfect recipe to try.
    It was wonderful! My roast was only 3 pounds so I halved the remaining ingredients. The gravy was delicious. And as far extra gravy, anytime I have leftover gravy it's a good thing! I just freeze it and use it for something else!

    This is a really good pot roast. When I first read the recipe over, I thought way too much salt. So I really tasted as I made it and discovered it really needed all the salt. I think the veggies and the fat in the meat require a lot of salt. I made it as directed and it was great. My company loved it. It does make a lot of sauce. I have about 2 cups left that we will have with meatloaf for another meal. Another perfect Ina recipe. Thanks!

    This was delicious! I followed the recipe exactly. We ended up with a lot of sauce, but I'd rather have too much sauce than not enough. We had friends over for dinner, and everyone had 2nd helpings. We served it with mashed pots & used some of the gravy for them.

    I make this at the beginning of every winter and 4-5 times again each year. My kids beg for it. I have come to find that I don't need olive oil anymore, and the pureed veggies thicken the sauce without flour/butter. It's the most perfect recipe I've found to date.
