It was very good. I made it for my husband and 4 year old son and both enjoyed it a lot. I added parsnips to it to sneak some additional veggies in. The smell of the bacon with the pot roast made the house smell wonderful! It was more work than I had anticipated before putting it in the oven.

I followed the directions to the T except I found a German beer to use. It was absolutely delicious!

Big hit at our house! My husband said it was even better after spending the night in the refrigerator. We aren't big onion eaters so I used just enough to taste and only a regular type of beer. Melissa's right about the prunes...changed the flavor entirely. Next time I will use a bigger roast and add potatoes for a complete dinner all in one dish. This recipe is a winner.

This was delicious. I could have eaten all of those onions. I made this recipe as stated except that I did not find it necessary to add the vegetable oil, and instead of braising for a couple hours, I used the pressure cooker. I kept it under pressure for 20 min. and released it naturally. I used Pipeline beer, a stout with Kona coffee. Yum! I will definitely make it again.

We love this recipe! We are Gluten free so we sub the beer for gluten free beer and we use brown rice flour...not ricey at all and has a great beer flavor! Thanks!!!

I wanted to try a new twist on pot roast and this was my choice. I added 2 garlic cloves and omitted the prunes simply because I didn't have any, next time I will chop and cook prunes. 1 Tablespoon of dried thyme was way too much, I will cut it down to 1/2 teaspoon next time. I will also use bacon grease omitting the extra vegetable oil and eat the bacon while the roast cooks LOL! Really nice taste, used sirloin tip and very, very tender. I cooked in dutch oven then transferred to Pampered Chef Deep Covered Baker to bake in oven. Will try again making above changes.

So,so, so good. I made this last night for the first time and I'm still thinking about it. We just used a regular Budweiser and it was delicious. So with buying the meat whole and cuttting it up yourself. Don't skimp on the time for carmelizing the onions this is what gives it it that slightly sweet rich flavor. The prunes add flavor as well as texture. Can't wait to make it again.

This recipe is wonderful, I usually follow it to the T and in the vegetable part I add some potatoes and whatever vegetables are on sale at the store. I have used frozen, canned and fresh ingredients and I think as long as you don't skimp on the thyme and the beer (which add such great flavor and aroma then you have a great dinner. To make it last or to serve more people, I cook up some pasta or rice to throw it over and I get leftovers for days.

Made it for my parents tonight. My mom raved about it - said she hadn't had a meal like this in a very long time. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us Melissa :
