  1. Made this for Fall PAC 2012 and DH couldn't stop eating this. I cooked this in the crockpot and the meat came out sooo tender and everything was done perfectly. Served over garlic mashed potatoes. Our company wanted the recipe so I ran up and printed them a copy. Thank you for posting.
     
  2. This is one heck of a recipe! We all loved the subtle flavor of the tomato, the added bonus of the mushrooms and onions and the beef was so tender I swear I could have fed it to a toddler. I prepared it in the crock pot and it was finished and literally so juicy and tender in just 4 1/2 hours. The only thing missing were the pearl onions as my small area of the state just does not carry them at the market. I will definitely be using this method again as it made a cheap tough cut of beef feel like we were eating the best there is to buy. Found and made during the ZWT8 tour.
     
  3. Yummy! We don't like mushrooms so omitted those and added more carrot. Will definitely make this again. Thanks for the recipe.
     
  4. After reading the reviews and looking at the photos I decided to double the recipe. Tender beef and vege's in a nice gravy. I dont think DH would have liked the pearl onions so I chopped a medium size red onion and added that. He loves gravy so I did not thicken mine and served with mashed potatoes. Do want to give those pearl onions a try so will make it again! Made and reviewed for Culinary Quest - 2015.
     
  5. DELICIOUS!!! I could have eaten the entire pot!
