This is probably one of the most awesome home-made roasts I've ever had. It was tender, tasty, and easy to make. I used a chuck roast that was 2 and a half pounds, and I accidentally cooked it at full temp for 21 minutes rather than the 18 I should have. But I don't think that made much of a difference in the final product. What may have made a slight difference is that I made my own kitchen boquet by melting some brown sugar and adding water. I also used fresh ground pepper straight from the grinder onto the roast. I have a feeling this roast is going to become a staple in my household. Appendage to my orignal comments: I forgot to mention that the drippings made a wonderful natural gravy. Also I put the kitchen boquet recipe I used in my recipes, it should be up any day now.

This roast had very good flavor and I followed the directions exactly as posted. However, my roast came out very rare, so some adjustment in timing may be necessary depending on your oven. My oven is electric (and old!) so next time, I will leave the meat roast a little longer at 500 degrees, before turning oven off.

I am married with 2 grown sons, and I work as a proofreader. My Italian husband and mother-in-law love it when we try recipes from the 'Zaar, and it's fun for me just to browse and look for typos--I can't help it. My other hobbies are miniature needlework, dollhouses, reading, houseplants and eBay. Since I joined Recipezaar I am cooking more (and better) than ever before. Thanks for a wonderful site!
Since you ask, my pet peeve is inexcusable spelling. Some of the postings on eBay are unbelievable--swade coat, bob wire, Pillsbury doe boy.
