Pot Roast In Au Jus image

This is my mom's recipe. It's hearty, delicious and very inexpensive, great for cold winter days. I like to eat it with a thick slice of toasted and buttered sourdough bread to sop up all that wonderful au jus.

This recipe was a disaster! The meat was tough and the au jus was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The pot roast was a bit dry for my taste, but the au jus was delicious. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.
