Yorkshire Pudding
I would be silly to write an article about the best side dishes for pot roast and NOT include Yorkshire Puddings. These little babies are reserved for special occasions in this house, not because they're particularly difficult to make, but because they're so delicious smothered in gravy that I could eat an entire tray of them myself. If you've never made them, you should!
