I made this recipe today. I cant believe how easy it was to put together. The gravy that was made tasted a little like a barbecue sauce.I liked it well enough but would get tired of that particular taste if made each time. The meat was very tender I took the advice of another reviewer and sprinkled the onion soup on the bottom and on top of the meat.

The basic premise of this recipe is good and I will definitely make it again. The cooking time was way too long. I cooked a 5 lb. roast for 10 hours, 8 hours would have been plenty. I may even do just six next time. The "gravy" was delicious (a little more flour was needed). I used a 16 oz.can of whole cranberry sauce. Yummers!

This is sooooo easy and sooooo tasty! I did make a double batch of the gravy because I knew how much my husband liked it! I served it with mashed potatoes, veggie, and hot from the oven french bread for dipping. Yummy!
