"This recipe definitely is easy! Plus it's just as the submitter describes - good, simple, and inexpensive which is just what a pot roast should be as it's classic comfort food.

And, I also subbed a can of beef broth for the water as it brings out more of the beef flavor plus it makes for some really good gravy.

I cooked it low and slow for 8 hours and it was falling apart and above all delicious - perfect with mashed potatoes!"
