    Love this recipe. Used 2 sweet onions, and added chunky carrots and celery to the meat package. when the meat was done, I removed the carrots and celery, and pureed the onions and used that when preparing the sauce. Divine!!
    Re the cracked LeCruset: always, always add HOT or even boiling water, to any hot pan in the oven.

    This turned out to be an expensive recipe for me to try. I used a LeCrueset baker for the pan. I checked the pan every 45 minutes to make sure it still had water. The second time I checked, it was down to maybe a 1/4 inch in the bottom of the pan, so I added water and right then the pan broke in half!! I didn't know that was possible, and might be something to warn people about on the recipe. I can't speak to the recipe itself. It's still in the oven, now in a metal baking pan. I hope its as good as it looked on the show!!

    I thought this roast came out very well, made according to directions, my roast was a bit under 5 lbs. so I did decrease the vinegar just a smidge. I can't say outstanding because I don't think a chuck roast could reach outstanding...I did have trouble with the gravy although I used Wondra and whisked and whisked I did have to strain the lumps out. Probably would go over better on a cold winters day.

    This is the best roast I have ever made, and I have made a few I must say! I hesitated at first because of the vinegar, but it turned out great. My husband said "this is a keeper"! Thanks Trisha and your mom too!

    I come from a Czech community in Oklahoma, and my grandmother used the same vinegar trick on pork roast, with onions and caraway seed. This is just as good a treatment for an inexpensive beef roast.

    If a 5 pound roast only has 4 servings, that family must have one heck of an appetite!! However, the roast is great. Very tasty and falling apart tender. Will definitely make it again.

    For YEARS I have been hunting for a recipe close to my Mama's. This is as close as it gets. My mother's was a bit crisp on the outside so I am guessing she would give hers a quick browning before she put it in the foil. I understand some people's hesitation in the use of foil/vinegar together but I have made this recipe and found neither an "aluminum taste" nor a "vinegar" taste to this recipe. This one is a keeper for me. Thanks, Trisha. An old friend has come back to my kitchen. Many a Sunday was spent in church with a long winded pastor going on and on and my sister and I thinking of nothing but this roast to get us through that sermon!!! Thanks so much!

    Amazing! I've experimented with so many different recipes for pot roast this is by far the best and the easiest!

    Excellent. Added lots of potatoes and carrots in the packet with the roast and added enough water to the vinegar to make 1/3 cup total to compensate for the extra juices the veggies would need.
