I now have time to get a post done. I’ll be back again tomorrow morning with another one for you. I found this recipe over at My Sister’s Kitchen, she adapted the recipe from Big Oven. I love a good crock pot recipe and this is now added to my go-to list. It is also very simple to make and turns out nice and tasty. I even used the juices leftover to make gravy. I thickened it with a slurry made from flour and water, then added some beef bouillon and salt. It was excellent. When packets of salad dressings and gravy go on sale, stock up for this wonderful recipe.
3 Envelope Roast
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 envelope of dry Italian salad dressing mix
- 1 envelope of dry ranch salad dressing mix
- 1 envelope of dry brown gravy mix
- 3 pound beef roast (such as chuck roast)
Instructions
- Place the water in a medium bowl. Add all three envelopes of dry salad dressings/gravy to the water. Mix until blended completely.
- Brown the roast (if desired). Add the roast to your slow cooker. Pour the water/salad dressing mixture over the roast.
- Place in the slow cooker and cook on high for about 4 hours or on low about 8 hours.
I made this tonight for the family and it was so delicious! It was the best roast I have ever had!!! We will definitely eat this again.

This was soo good!!
I’ve shared it on my blog.
Mary!!! It look fabulous!!!! I knew it would be great!!! Good deal!! Slow cooker is a good friend on hot days!!! Gotta love it!
This does look like a really yummy recipe! We don't have a slow cooker, but I'll have to try the same thing as a "regular" roast in terms of cooking method. I love that there aren't 75 ingredients – as a working mother of 2 under 3, plus a husband and 2 cats, easy equals good!
That was the best tasting roast I've ever made. We had it for dinner today and it was yummy. It made the best gravy also, I did't have boullion so I used an envelope of brown gravy and mushroom gravy and put the water in that they each called for and it was tasty. Thanks for the down home recipes that are easy to make..
Thank you for the music. I enjoy reading your recipes as well as listening to the music.
The gravy tasted excellent after the addition of a little bouillon and salt.
How does the gravy taste? (for potatoes)
I've made this recipe many times… it really is tasty, isn't it.
I love how simple that is! It looks yummy too!!
