Gail's Favorite Super-easy Slow Cooker Roast (TNT)

Gail's Favorite Super-easy Slow Cooker Roast (TNT)             Prep Time: ~10 Minutes Cook Time: ~6 Hours Servings: ~6 Ingredients: 1 cup water 1 (.7 oz) package dry Italian-style salad dressing mix 1 (1 oz) package ranch dressing mix 1 (.75 oz) packet dry brown gravy mix 1 (3 lb) boneless beef chuck roast Directions: Whisk together the water, Italian dressing mix, ranch dressing mix, and brown gravy mix together in a bowl until smooth. Place the beef roast into a slow cooker, and pour the sauce over top. Cook on Low until the roast is easily pierced by a fork, 6 to 8 hours. Gail's Note : This is a fabulously easy and tasty beef roast! The only thing different that I do is brown the roast prior to placing it in the crock pot as it tends to add better texture to the roast.
