I have made this recipe many times. *I bake my meat at 350°F (after browning) for 2 hours. Then, add 1/2 to 1 lb whole carrots and 4 to 6 whole, med size red potatoes. And, I put a sprig of fresh Rosemary on top of meat. Cover and bake 40 to 60 minutes longer. I do add green beans the last 20 minutes, also, so they are not mushy.

Using an Iron Dutch Kettle / Oven and cooking your fresh Vegetables whole yields a REALLY GOOD Yankee Pot Roast!! Just like Grandma use to make!! Yummy!!
