Serve with Killer Mashed or Smashed Potatoes. The recipe is posted. Also serve with carrots, onions and celery that has been cooked with roast. Little green peas or green beans and a yeast roll will have you rolling in the aisle.


I made this and the killer mashed potatoes and I have never had such a tasty roast. The gravy is heaven.


Will try next grocery run! Thanks for the post.


Simply excellent. My wife loved it and asked for more. We'll be trying a lot more of your recipes.
