• In a small bowl, combine Italian seasoning, Ranch seasoning, and gravy mix. Blend. Prick the entire roast with a fork. Rub the dried mix on roast. In a slow cooker, spread potatoes on bottom. Place seasoned chuck roast on potatoes. Pour water around roast. Cover and cook on high for 6 hours or 8 hours on low. Roast should have an internal temperature of 145ºF.

Stir together 3 tablespoon cornstarch and 3 tablespoon cold water. Bring sauce to a boil and whisk cornstarch mixture into boiling sauce. Spoon sauce over meat and potatoes. Add ½ pound baby carrots and 1 sliced onion and place at the bottom of the crockpot along with the potatoes for a heartier meal.

RANCH MISSISSIPPI ROAST SLOW COOKER

Steps:

• Season chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. Rub enough flour over the roast to evenly coat the surface.
• In a large skillet pan, warm oil over high heat until very hot but not smoking. Sear the roast until browned and crusty on all sides, about 10 minutes total.
• Place roast in the pot of a slow cooker. Pour beef broth around the roast, then sprinkle with seasoning mix, top with butter, and scatter pepperoncini over and around the roast.
• Cover the slow cooker and set on low heat for 7 to 8 hours. When ready, shred the meat, mixing with the sauce in the slow cooker, and serve over bread, egg noodles, or potatoes.Time-saving tip: In a rush? Swap the flour for one 1-ounce package of dry au jus gravy mix and skip the step for browning the meat.
