Notes

If you enjoy the flavor of thyme, but don't necessarily enjoy the leaves. You can just use dried leaves sprinkled on along with fresh rosemary.
For a thicker gravy, use ½ teaspoon of xanthan gum. For a runnier consistency, use ¼ teaspoon.
If you want the pot roast to have a little spice to it, add some red pepper flakes.
