This was delicious and easy. The gravy packets did a great job of making gravy. One less step for me to do. Beer gave it a nice flavor. I will make this again but will try with one packet of gravy next time.
So you add the potatoes in with the roast in the beginning for the 8 hours then the vegetables For the last hour or two.
Hi Pat. I add the potatoes and all the veggies the last 2 hours of cooking so they don’t get mushy. Thanks! -Amy
