Absolutely the best pot roast I have ever made, and pot roast is my comfort food of choice so I've made a few! Normally I keep canned french onion soup on hand, but didn't have any this time. So, I sliced a small onion thinly and placed it in the crockpot. The seasoned roast went on top of them and a can of beef consomme and cream of chicken as the soups. Also threw in a whole bag of baby carrots and 4-5 medium potatoes, cut up. A to-die-for meal, IMHO. This is the only pot roast I will make from now on.

This has great flavor! I rubbed my roast with the cajun seasoning and added about 1 tsp. to the soup mixture. The gravy was a bit thin so I thickened it with cornstarch. My DH loved it and my baby girl licked all of the gravy and mashed potatoes from her fingers (she's not much of a meat eater). Thanks for sharing!

Oh my, this is the best pot roast I have made yet!!! Everyone in the family loved this recipe. Who would have thought 2 cans of soup along with Cajun seasoning would taste SOOoooOOO good!! I also made the Cajun Seasoning Mix recipe #27405 by Mille® ™ since I don’t have this seasoning in my cupboard. I also chose the cream of celery soup to use. Just before serving, I thicken the gravy with cornstarch. I said in Mille® ™ review that I thought these two recipes are a match made in culinary heaven!!! I can’t wait to buy another roast to make this again!! I’m so glad you chose to share this recipe here at Zaar.
