Envelope Roast
- Prep the Roast: Season the 3 lbs chuck roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Place the seasoned roast in a crockpot.
- Make the Gravy Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the contents of the 1 package of dry Italian seasoning mix, 1 package of dry Ranch seasoning mix, and 1 package of dry brown gravy mix. Add the 1 cup of water to the bowl and whisk until all the ingredients are well mixed and there are no lumps.
- Cook in the Crockpot: Pour the gravy mixture over the top of the roast in the crockpot. If you’re using the optional vegetables, you can add them to the crockpot at this time, arranging them around the roast. Cover the crockpot and set it on high. Cook for 4 hours.
