    1 tablespoon cooking oil
    4 carrots, sliced (2 cups)
    2 cups chopped onion
    2 large kosher-style dill pickles, chopped (3/4 cup)
    2 stalks celery, sliced (1 cup)
    1/2 cup dry red wine or beef broth
    1/3 cup German-style mustard
    1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons dry red wine or beef broth
    Hot cooked spaetzle or cooked noodles

    Trim fat from the pot roast. If necessary cut the roast to fit into a

    or beef broth, mustard, pepper, cloves, and bay leaves.
    Pour over meat. Cover and cook on the low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours
    or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours. Remove meat from cooker and place
    on a serving platter; keep warm.
    For gravy, transfer vegetables and cooking liquid to a 2-quart saucepan.
    Skim off fat. Remove bay leaves. Stir together flour and the remaining 2
    tablespoons wine or beef broth. Stir into the mixture in saucepan. Cook and
    stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 1 minute
    more. Serve meat and vegetables with gravy and hot cooked spaetzle or
    noodles. If desired, top with additional chopped pickle and bacon. M
    akes 8 servings.
