Great pot roast recipe, Mysterygirl!. I made it in my crockpot. Quick and easy, and I was out the door. I added some carrots in the bottom of the pot, but otherwise made the recipe exactly. However, When I make it again I will use 1 cup water and 1 cup wine. It was a little heavy on the wine for my taste, but otherwise a very good recipe.

<p>I am one of the early members of Zaar joining in October 2001. It was instantly my favorite site even though there were only about 5000 recipes. Back then the original owners Troy and Gay ran the site and they had a lot of interaction with the members. I miss them. <br /> <br />Through the years it still remains to this day my favorite go to site and the one that I send all of my friends and family to when they need anything.</p>
