A dish of Dorothyâ€™s Pot Roast at Gavin Kaysenâ€™s restaurant, Spoon and Stable, in Minneapolis, Jan. 11, 2016. When Kaysen returned home after cooking all over the world, he had not intended on making pot roast for his paying customers, but after a few revisions to his grandmotherâ€™s recipe, the dish became a local favorite.
