3 lb Chuck Roast
1 Packet dry Italian dressing
1 Packet dry Ranch dressing
1 Packet Beef Gravy
1 cup Water + 2 cups Water
Optional: chopped carrots and potatoes
In a frying pan turned to high heat, heat a tbsp of oil. Place the roast in the pan and brown on all sides. Remove from the pan and place in the slow cooker.
Mix together all 3 packets in a bowl and then shake over the beef. Turn the beef over so you can get the seasoning on all sides of it. It will seem like A TON of seasoning, but don't worry...it works. Add 1 cup of water and set the slow cooker to cook on low for 8 hours. You can also add chopped carrots and potatoes in with the beef at this point as well. They really soak up the flavor of the seasoning packets.
A 1/2 an hour before you want to eat, add 2 more cups of water and turn the slow cooker up to high. Serve the beef with the broth ladled over top, but make sure you hang on to the leftovers so you can make Beef Barley Soup.
