Recipe: Slow-Cooked Rump Roast
Description: I enjoy a good pot roast, but I was tired of the same old thing, so I started experimenting. Cooking the beef in horseradish sauce gives it a tangy flavor. Even my 6- and 3-year-olds love this roast with its tender veggies and gravy. &mdash;Mimi Walker, Palmyra, Pennsylvania
