Simply Simple 3 Ingredient Roast Recipes

THREE PACKET SLOW COOKER ROAST

Steps:

• 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.

EASY CHUCK ROAST IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300℉. Place the roast on a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil (or a double layer of regular) that has been set on a rimmed baking sheet. Rub a thin layer of olive oil over both sides of the roast. Sprinkle half of the soup mix packet on the top of the roast, half on the bottom. This will act as a dry rub. Bring the sides of the foil up and fold over to seal them, and then fold over the ends a few times to seal them, too. You will have a packet that should hold the juice that will cook out of the roast, but the baking sheet is essential as leaks do occur. (I do leave a bit of an air pocket at the top of the packet rather than wrapping the roast tight.) Bake the roast for 3½ hours or until the meat is fall-apart tender. If your roast is in the 3½ to 4-pound range, cook for approximately 4 hours. Remove the tray from the oven and allow the roast to sit, in the packet, for 10 minutes (longer is fine). When opening the foil packet, be careful of the hot steam that will escape. Serve right from the foil or transfer the meat to a serving dish and pour the juices overtop.**

THE EASIEST 3 INGREDIENT CROCK POT ROAST EVER! (SLOWCOOKER)

Steps:

• Place roast in a large crock pot.
• Squirt or spread a thin layer of mustard over the roast.
• Sprinkle onion soup mix on top.
• Cook 8 hours on low (8 hours on high if roast is frozen).
• OPTIONAL GRAVY: Strain the fat off the liquid and discard fat.
• Place reserved liquid in a sauce pan and bring to a slight boil.
• Add cornstarch to the water and make a paste.
• Add paste to the reserved liquid and whisk until thickened.
• NOTE: Do not add water to this - it will effectively "steam" the roast and make it tougher. Believe it or not, this will make its own liquid.

SIMPLE BEEF POT ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• Pour vegetable oil into a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with salt and black pepper. Brown the meat on both sides in the hot oil, and transfer to a plate.
• Stir carrots, celery, and onion into the pot, and cook and stir until vegetables start to release their juices, about 3 minutes; loosen any brown flavor bits on the bottom of the pot. Add butter, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Then sprinkle in rosemary, stir the vegetables, and return the roast to the pot. Cover the pot with a lid.
• Roast in the preheated oven until the chuck roast is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Season vegetables with additional salt and black pepper, if desired.
