Garlic & Onions Pot Roast image

I always ad lib on pot roasts, but this one was so good I scribbled it down before I forgot and then made it exactly the same the next time and it was just as good. So now I have to make it permanent! Don't try this if you don't love garlic! I do it in my crock-pot, but it can be done on top of the stove or in the oven, too. The best thing about the crock pot is starting it before I go to sleep, then in the morning, when it's done, put it in the fridge. When I get home all I have to do is peel off the fat and heat for a great dinner. Serve with mashed potatoes or noodles or make dumplings...yum.
