    The gravy was amazing! I used it over mashed potatoes, and it was the perfect comfort food.

  • Karl Purdy

    I followed the recipe exactly, and the roast was a bit tough. I think I might try cooking it for longer next time to see if it becomes more tender.

  • Calista Anderson

    I was a bit skeptical about the oven bag, but it really does keep the roast moist and flavorful.
