HORMEL COMPLEATS Beef Pot Roast, Microwaveable, 9oz x6

This is the best one so far, decent amount of a thick flavorful gravy with plenty of carrots and potatoes and actual pieces of real meat. A bit of fresh ground pepper is always good, and I like that this isn't salty either. Pair it up with your favorite bread, maybe a salad and you should feel like you had enough to eat. A word of warning regarding the containers for these meals - use a better microwavable container that has a vented lid because even if I cooked it in 30 sec intervals I think the concave bottom just builds up pressure until the whole dish basically explodes and it will do it more than once even after the microwave has stopped heating. No matter how well you vent it this will happen, potatoes have a role to play? I don't know just not willing to have to clean off enough of this meal from the roof and sides of the oven before I can eat it. Not willing to give up on the meal either, I like this one, used a paper bowl this time with a single half paper towel over it but will use another dish next time and will update. Another reviewer had the same thing happen to them and adjusting the power just uses same level of heat just cycles it on/off more or less times depending on choice. I think dish is to blame.

I have purchased many Hormel compleats in the past and this beef pot roast is easy to make in the microwave and found it to be delicious. If you like a quick easy to make meal you may want to try this beef pot roast.

Overall, this is a pretty convenient meal—just pop it in the microwave and it’s ready in about a minute, which is great when you don’t feel like cooking. The beef and gravy taste decent, kind of like a simple homemade pot roast, and the portion is enough for a quick meal. My main issue is with the potatoes. The texture is a bit off—they actually taste more like carrots than potatoes, which was kind of strange and not what I expected. Also, the whole dish is on the salty side, so if you prefer lighter flavors, it might be a bit much.

Very tasty little roast beef dinners. Taste like homemade in a smaller sized portion. My husband loves these grab on the go beef dinners for his work lunch. Just pop into the microwave cook for 1 minute. Then eat. The beef, potatoes, and carrots are very tender. And only 200 calories. Best value for a hot lunch.

Great flavour, but no meat ( hardly any meat, just gravy ) Portions seemed very small, I feel they could be doubled in size. Had there been more meat, and or a double portion of everything, I'd have given this a 5 star. This felt a bit like putting a can of Hormel Stew over some mashed potato which would have been more food that this. So, this 3 star review is only because of the shrinkflation feel of lack of "food".

I ordered this product because there are days when I'm so busy that when I finally stop I'm too tired to cook . Pop it in the microwave it's quick it's easy and it's just enough to satisfy my needs . The price was good , yes I will buy this item again .

Convenience, taste, serving size is just right. I have several choices on hand for those times when I just don't want to "fix" a meal. These are a filling comfort food and the kitchen stays clean! 14g protein, only 200 calories! These meals are a little high on sodium but during the course of a day I pick that battle with one meal so I have no problem with it. Warm it up in just 1 minute!

Tastes good. A good portion.

The pot roast is a great size for a lunch but you would need to add some sides to make it a dinner. Tasted okay. With a sodium level of 43% of the daily allowance you probably shouldn’t add salt. I wish they said what the bio-engineered ingredient was. Good value for shelf life, quick and easy.

Sorry to say that I am very disappointed in these microwaveable bowls. Little to none pieces of meat but lits of gravy which makes up for 90% of the ingredients. Will never purchase again. They are sitting in my pantry. What a waste of good money which I work hard for.
