This roast is excellent! I LOVE horseradish and it really shines in this recipe. I made as posted except I did not add potatoes because I wanted to serve mashed potatoes alongside. The meat was super tender and not dried out. We really enjoyed our dinner and will be serving this many times in the future. Thanks for posting a keeper!

This was great! I can't tell you how many times I've ruined roast, and this one came out great. My husband always complains about overdone meat, but he ate the whole plate of this meal. I took the meat out at exactly 8 hours, but I could have taken it out 30 minutes earlier. The vegetables I had to continue to cook an hour longer. I added an onion to the recipe as well, but it probably didn't need it because the flavoring was all in there. Thanks for this great recipe!

Very quick & easy recipe to throw into the crockpot before leaving the house. I love a lot of horseradish, but for those who don't, it's not overpowering in this dish. The gravy was wonderful as well. I didn't have celery or whole garlic on hand so substituted one quartered onion & a large tablespoon of bottled minced garlic. Both DH & DS (13 yrs old) loved the meal. The meat was extremely tender & flavorful, as were the veggies. After the first taste both boys rated it a 4 1/2 star recipe. I gave it a 5 star because it's the first time we've ever eaten the entire roast at one sitting! lol This one's a keeper! Thank you CarolinaFan!
