April's Crockpot Roast

 

This is my own recipe.  I used ideas from other recipes I have used. 

I'm looking for a creative name.  What would you name it? 

This is a fall apart, melt in your mouth, full of flavor meal.  By putting the potatoes on the bottom, they soak up the broth and become full of flavor.
