anyone got a good pot roast recipe?

[nameraka]

my wife bought this hard cherry cola stuff that neither one of us is going to drink, so i was thinking of using it to make a roast. 

maybe with french onion soup mix and some cream of mushroom.

wifey makes a killer pot roast. i don't know the recipe, but i'm pretty sure it includes french onion soup and maybe some italian beef seasoning. and she fills the pot with carrots and taters too. damn, that's some good stuff.

I want to say its rosemary, olive oil, and... sge maybe?

Rub that all over the roast then stick it in a pan really quick to seal in the flavor. 

Then toss it in the crockpot with your other stuff.

I cant promise it will be great with that hard cherry cola though, that seems like the sort of thing that isn't that much good for anything.

i usually sear the meat before doing any roasting/crock pot thing after sauteeing onions and garlic in butter and olive oil. 

i use allspice on the meat (along with salt, pepper, ground mustard)

so, yeah. i would try this in lieu of adding water. seal it up real tight for a couple hours. 

the gravy from this would interesting.

Garlic, that's what I was forgetting

made sure to sear it. did that the last time i made corned beef and it made all the difference. 

...not sure why it had never occurred to me before.

Mine is:

Throw out the pot roast - order a pizza. 

Never cared for pot roast.
