I use this recipe to some extent, but in addition I add a container of sour cream. A regular size container. I cook a larger roast, so I'm not sure how much sour cream to add per pound. Even if you don't like sour cream, you will love this. You don't taste "sour cream" it just tastes smooth. I also add a soup can of beef broth. I add sliced onions, carrots and celery after soup has cooked a while, potatoes and last mushrooms (fresh). I made this for my mom once. She said it was the best roast she had ever eaten. High praise for such a great cook.

My husband LOVED this. I changed it a bit. I seared the meat on all sides first. And I added a can of beef broth. And I added garlic cloves, carrots, potatoes, and celery after a couple hours. Really good! Make sure not to salt any of it.it was plenty salty from the onion soup mix!
