I've been trying a handful of Pot Roast recipes lately and I always go back to the one from Giada De Laurentis. It is the right amount of tender beef, complex broth/wine based flavor with mushrooms and a very yummy sauce (made from the broth/wine/mushrooms). This Pot Roast smells amazing while it cooks and is the perfect recipe to make on the weekend or when I end up working from home. It takes a while to cook, but the results are delicious and worth the wait...
I usually buy the chuck roast from Costco and use a tasty red wine (cheap wine cheapens the taste of the roast). I've also substituted fresh, more common mushrooms for the porcini's.

Enjoy and let me know if you like it as much as I do!
