Ingredients
- 3 medium carrots peeled and chopped into 1½ to 2-inch segments (roughly 3 cups)
- 1 packet 0.7 ounces dry Italian salad dressing seasoning
- 3 medium to large russet potatoes peeled and diced into 1 to 1½-inch chunks (yields approximately 3 cups)
- 1 envelope 0.87 ounces powdered brown gravy mix
- 2 cups warm water
- 1 packet 1.0 ounce dry ranch-style seasoning blend
- 1/2 large yellow onion coarsely chopped (approximately 1 cup)
- 3- pound boneless beef chuck roast
Instructions
- Scatter the cut potatoes, carrots, and diced onion evenly across the bottom of your slow cooker.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the warm water with the dry ranch dressing mix, brown gravy powder, and Italian seasoning packet until fully dissolved.
- Position the beef roast directly atop the bed of vegetables inside the cooker. Gently pour the prepared liquid seasoning mixture over the meat, ensuring the top is fully coated.
- Secure the lid and cook on the low setting for 7 to 8 hours, or on high for 4 to 5 hours, until the meat is fork-tender and easily pulled apart.
- Serve warm, paired with the surrounding vegetables and pan juices, or with a homemade gravy if desired.
