I prefer a top round, eye round, or other lean cut of beef. I brown the roast on all sides, then put in crockpot with low-sodium beef broth & cut up onion. Cook it on HIGH for about 3 hours, then put in cut up carrots & potatoes & cook for another hour. The veggies are cooked but not overcooked. - 8/1/11

Wonderful flavor--will definitely make again. I substituted celery root for the rutabaga and doubled the parsnips. Also used a very lean rump roast that turned out very tender. Incredibly good! - 5/24/11

I make this a little differently. I put chunks of onions on the bottom of a crockpot, set the roast on top sprinkle with garlic salt/pepper, and cook. I don't add liquid or precook. Veggies can be added for the last hour of cooking on high temp. - 7/7/11

The parsnip and rutabagas can be difficult to locate, but well worth the effort. They add a unique sweetness to the broth that is produced.
A small yam cut up will completely dissolve and add additional texture and sweetness. - 5/6/11

Loved this recipe... only vegetables I used were carrots, celery and onions though. I served over brown rice and everyone loved it (hubby and 3 kids ages 6-12). - 8/21/12

I have never had much luck with pot roasts - but this one was so simple...and it ended up being delicious, too! Plus...I got to try two new veggies I'd never had before! Prepared exactly as written, you can't go wrong with this one! - 2/9/12

Awesome!!!! I saw the mention of Crock Pot liners- ALSO AWESOME! They are made by Reynolds, and come 4 liners to a box. I get them at Target or Walmart for under $2.00 a box. Well worth it! - 2/1/12

It doesn't get easier. Great taste and texture. The root vegetables impart rich flavor to the sauce. Make sure you serve a full bodied red wine . Yummy enough for guests - 11/23/14

I don't understand why this is being promoted as a heart healthy recipe. Spark, vegetables are heart healthy, but not beef. - 9/11/14

I also used the Celery Root instead of Rutabaga only becuase of the oxolates in the Rutabaga that I need to shy away from otherwise this Recipe is easy and full of flavor. - 12/29/12

YUM! I made this early for the weekend, but sampled it using a steamed cabbage wrap, which by the way I added to the original recipe in place of the celery root (none on hand; I'll have to give rutabaga a try next time). I also used my oven. - 4/25/19
