Self-congratulatory (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

smug

'self-congratulatory' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for smug that I've seen before include "looking pleased with itself" , "goody-goody" , "Be envious of" , "Smooth" , "Self-satisfied, complacent" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Guardian and The Wall Street Journal.
