great!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I substituted fresh crushed garlic for the powdered and used dijon mustard because i didn't have any powdered. I also added... some balsamic vinegar (about a 1/2 cup) and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a little kick. The beef was tender and the veggies were soft but not mushy. Next time I might hold back on some of the chili powder, it was a little overpowering. Overall this was really great especially for a first time slow cooker!Read more

disgusting
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I made the recepie exactly as they said and it was absolutely gross! Don't get me wrong I LOVE root vegetables and stews, but... this was way too sickly sweet even adding less sugar and the root vegetable in the sauce were sour! I know they were fresh so that was not the problem. definately not a keeper, too bad because she usually has awesome recepies!Read more

better than I expected
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I saw this episode and then read the reviews, to discover that the amt of brown sugar is a mispreint- she said 1/3 in the... program, so that what I followed. It was so good! Ive been looking for a decent pot roast recipe and this is a keeper. I followed the instructions with the addition of 4 cloves of garlic and no rutabaga. I then made a gravy out of the juice that was left. I would like to use the leftovers late this week, but there probably wont be any!Read more

delish
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I did not have dry mustard so I used regular mustard. I did not use any veggies, and this was the best roast I have ever... made! I was impressed, I had two helpings!! It smelled so good cooking! This roast fell apart, like a roast should! I have made roast three times in the last three months and this is by far the best one I have ever made and ate!! Thanks Robin!!Read more

Great Roast with modified sugar
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Based on comments, I reduced the sugar to 1/3 cup. Everything else was the same. It turned out great using a sirloin tip... roast in a slow cooker on low. Will make this again. Read more
