    I followed some of the comments regarding limiting cooking liquid to 1 cup of water. This meal was delicious!!! I cut back on the oil to about 1-2 tbs to brown the meat. I didn't feel the recipe was too salty but you can always counter salt with drinking water! SOO Easy and SOOO Good!
    Thanks Paula!!!

    Sorry, 1.5 teasp. salt mixture, AND 3-4 bouillon cubes, AND canned soup (ew! absolutely IS too much salt. Paula Dean's recipes are not known for being healthy. I would never make a pot roast this way. Ever. If no stars were an option, that's what I'd give this recipe.

    Tasty? What did you think?VERY VERY UPSET TASTBUDS!
    PAULA - I THINK YOU ARE AMAZING - BUT THIS WAS THE MOST DISGUSTING POT ROAST I EVER TASTED! OMG! MY husband and I both were absolutely horrified at how horrible this roast tasted.
    We came to the conclusion that it was the bay leaves. We have never cooked with Bay Leaves, and I used 3 as your recipe called for.
    We ended up throwing the entire roast, including the vegetables, potatoes and carrots we added as well. It was a sad evening.
    I almost cried because i had worked so hard to fix it exactly the way the recipe called for.

    For the people that are saying it's too salty, it only calls for 1 1/2 tsp of house seasoning. Why in the world would anyone add an entire cup of salt? The salt is for the house seasoning recipe, to be used again and again. Don't give the recipe a bad review if you're not reading it right. It's a delicious recipe.

    This is my go to Pot Roast recipe. I use the house seasoning in flour, and coat the roast on all sides before browning. This thickens the gravy. I add baby carrots in the last hour of cooking, and serve with mashed potatoes. Savory, delicious, fall apart with a fork, meat. Truly, one of my kids favorite's, and husband just says..."this ISN"T my mother's pot roast!"...Thanks Paula!!!

    We both really enjoyed it, but I should have read the reviews more extensively. Covering the meat with water is major overkill--we had wayyyy too much liquid. My husband also commented that it was salty, which I suppose it was, but I love salt so it was perfect for me. Overall it was exactly what I thought it would be. I'd give it five stars but I was a little annoyed about the over-abundance of liquid.

    This is PERFECT pot roast - exactly the way it should be. Tender, succulent meat. Wonderful comfort food. I threw in carrots last 2 hours of cooking and served it with mashed potatoes. Kids gobbled up the meat. I did not pour the water to cover the meat, & I'm glad I didn't. Next time, I will put only about 1 cup of water.

    Yum yum!! This was my first attempt at any sort of roast, and yes the recipe seemed quite easy but I was still a little worried. I did make a few modifications to the recipe such as using low sodium beef broth with the water, only using 2 bouillon cubes, adding mushrooms and using a different rub on the roast that had a bit more flavor and spice to it. Overall this was very tasty, easy meal and even my husband who doesn't care much for pot roast was impressed! Thank you Paula for a great recipe!!
