I found this recipe here a couple of years ago when googling and looking for a new roast recipe. I absolutely LOVE cooking in my slow cooker! It's awesome as it's basically dump and go, and then about 8 hours later you have a Fabulous meal that you did virtually nothing to prepare.
Now I admit I was skeptical at first myself, sounded a bit to salty but TRUST me it's Awesome! This is the only way I make my roasts now....
I do everything exactly as the recipe from RecipeZaar says except I always brown my roasts beforehand in a tiny bit of olive oil.
Ingredients
- 1 beef roast, any kind
- 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package brown gravy mix, dry
- 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package dried Italian salad dressing mix
- 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package ranch dressing mix, dry
- 1/2 cup water
Directions
Brown your roast in a tiny bit of olive oil. Then place in your crockpot.
- Mix the dried mixes together in a bowl and sprinkle over the roast.
- Pour the water around the roast.
- Cook on low for 7-9 hours.
Not only is this recipe easy peasy but I love that it requires only a few ingredients and is very inexpensive to make! We always have leftovers. Wanna know what I do with the leftovers? This is almost better than the first time around. I said almost.
1. Take your leftover roast, doesn't matter if it's pork or beef, whatever will work and tear it all apart.
2. Now heat up a skillet with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil ( butter works to ) in it and add your meat.
3. Just cook it long enough to very slightly crisp it and warm it up.
4. Take some sandwich rolls, sliced bread, or hamburger buns with mayo ( that's how we roll ) or whatever your preference and fill with your meat and Enjoy!
It is soooooooooooo good! It's good with a slice of provolone cheese too!

I've used this same recipe several times and it is SOOO good...even my 13 year old daughter who doesn't really like beef too much will eat it (sometimes seconds)!
