- 1 (4-5 lb) beef roast - Any kind will do, but I used sirloin because it was the leanest.
- 1 package brown gravy mix
- 1 package Italian salad dressing mix
- 1 package ranch dressing mix
- 1-1.5 cups water
- red potatoes, carrots, & onions (cut up, but not cooked)
Instructions:
Add vegetables to the bottom of the crockpot. Place beef roast in crock pot. (I sort of made a nest of the veggies.) Mix the dry mixes together in a bowl with 1 cup of water and sprinkle that over the roast. Pour extra water around the roast, if desired. (I did.) Cook on low for 7-9 hours.
This was the first pot roast I ever attempted, and it was divine! The meat is so tender is just pulls apart, and the veggies are super flavorful. I made mine without onions (because husband hates them), but I think it would have been even better with them in there! So good that husband wanted to know what to do with the leftover juice on his plate. Not understanding, I told him to wash it down the drain. He looked kind of horrified, and said, "But it's too good not to do SOMETHING with it!" That means this recipe was a real winner with that cute man of mine. Good thing, too, because we're eating the leftovers tonight.
