Roast Posts??

Hey girls--Holly and I were talking the other day about roast recipes...what is your favorite way to cook a roast? what type of roast do you typically buy?
I'll post the way I cook mine, and then if some of you want to post yours too that would be great! or you could just reply in the comments section, whatever is easier!
Thanks! :)

P.S. I called my mom to ask her what type of roast she recommends (usually I call her on my cell phone while I'm standing in the meat section of the store trying to make up my mind :)) she said that: arm, shoulder, & chuck roasts are usually good.

My Basic Roast Recipe:

I cook mine in a crockpot all day long--I salt, pepper & garlic salt the roast really well on both sides before sticking it in the pot--then I dump a packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix on top of it--I kind of rub it into both sides of the roast.
I've recently started adding a can of beef broth to the pot as well (tip from Julia! :)) and then I'll put all my veggies in (new potatoes, carrots, mushrooms)...cover and cook all day on low.
I may add a little water too so that it won't get dry.

That's about it!

Your turn!
