  1. Can you use chuck roast?

  2. I want to try this recipe tonight but I have a chuck piece of beef. There is no one side that has fat, will this dry out if I cook it for the first hour uncovered?

  3. Do you set it on anything in the roaster pan, or just right in the pan?

  4. I need to buy a dutch oven. What size should I get?

  1. I just made this for me and my husband. It is SO easy to make and it was seriously the best pot roast I have ever had and my husband can't stop talking about it. I will DEFINITELY be making this again. :)

  2. This has to be the easiest - and best - pot roast recipe I've ever tried. Served it today for my family "Sunday supper" and it was a huge hit. Followed the recipe with the exception of the seasoning - just used salt & pepper. Sliced beautifully, cooked perfectly. No more searing the meat, just salt & pepper and put it in the oven. Fabulous. I'll never use another method for cooking a pot roast.

  3. This was the easiest, most delicious, succulent pot roast ever. I've just made it for the third time. The Cajun spice was the perfect seasoning. The meat was fork tender, yet you could slice it. I doubled the mushrooms and carrots since I am allergic to potatoes and added more liquid to serve over noodles. The leftover meat and gravy made fantastic pot roast sandwiches on Italian rolls. It's become my new pot roast of choice.

  4. This is a great oven roast! Its really easy and delicious. My roast was 3.87 lbs and I cooked it at 50 min intervals and it was done, but not overdone. I didn't do the gravy, we used the canned to save time. Also no mushrooms, but added some celery.If you're looking to do a roast without the crock pot, you won't be disappointed!

  5. Wow! I have been married & cooking pot roasts for 20 years...this recipe came out so tender & flavorful my husband said "it's the best pot roast you've ever made"! I used garlic powder, onion powder & adobo instead of the cajun seasoning. Fantastic, thank you so much.

  1. I loved this recipe. Best pot roast I ever made. I too used 1/2 Old Bay, 1/2 Lawry's plus a few red pepper flakes thrown in. Also, I put all the veggies in a bowl with salt/peppery and a dash of olive oil. Thank you for the recipe!
