After reading this recipe I thought yum then my next thought was I go to bed at nine, eat at 6:30, 22 hours in the crock pot? Plus I wanted to eat it tonight! I get up with my husband at five and I am hoping by starting it early enough on high for a few hours and then cooking the rest of the way on low it will be good. That will be a little over 12 hours. The only thing I did different was added vegetable broth in place of the water and salt. All day the aroma was killing us, it smelled so good. I left it on high until noon and then I turned it to low, and it was done by 5pm. The flavor was incredible…my husband doesn’t want me to cook a roast any other way but this recipe from now on. Your stars are endless… Thank you for a Superb recipe!!!

Excellent flavor! I used a 3-lb chuck roast and made this exactly as written. I really liked the "Swedish" taste of the nutmeg and cinnamon. The onions were especially yummy because they seemed to soak up all the flavors of the spices. After reading other reviews, I decided to add just 1 tbsp of cornstarch in water near the end of cooking. I was very pleased with the result, but I would have been very pleased even without the cornstarch. Thanx for posting this yummy pot roast. Definitely a keeper!
