This is a recipe that I created after trying it in Louisiana. I love the slight kick. The gravy is very tasty and great served with mashed potatoes. You will love this pot roast.

    Add all spices, broth and tomato sauce. Do not add potatoes and carrots yet. Bake for 2 hours in a covered dutch oven at 325 degrees.

    After 2 hours add the carrots and potatoes and more liquid if needed. You could use more broth or a little water. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 more hours.

    Slice meat and place on platter, surround with veggies and then pour some of the grave on the meat. Place the remainder in a gravy boat for self service.
