"Very easy recipe," says Magi. "I doctored it up with some fresh garlic and herbs. Last 15 minutes I threw in a can of mushrooms and the juice added to the gravy. This is a standby recipe forever."

"If you use a lean cut, it ends up too dry, shares reviewer baok. "You need to use a fatty cut like chuck roast for a slow, low temp cooking. Makes all the difference--ask your butcher for recommendations."

"First time using a crockpot and this was so easy!" raves Katie Jayne. "I added some spices to it following some other reviews and it was delicious."
