Here’s one of the easiest comfort meals ever — just 3 ingredients and the slow cooker does the work 🥩✨
🥩 3-Ingredient Slow Cooker Roast
🧂 Ingredients
- 3–4 lb chuck roast
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 packet au jus gravy mix
(No liquid needed — the roast creates its own juices.)
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Place the roast in the slow cooker.
2️⃣ Sprinkle ranch seasoning evenly over the top.
3️⃣ Sprinkle au jus mix over that.
Cover and cook:
- Low: 8 hours
- High: 4–5 hours
The roast will become tender and shred easily with a fork.
🍽️ Optional (but popular) Add-In
Many people turn this into “Mississippi-style” roast by adding:
- 4–6 pepperoncini peppers
- 2–4 tbsp butter
🥔 Serve With
- Mashed potatoes
- Rice
- On sandwich rolls
- Over egg noodles
If you’d like, I can also give you:
- An oven version
- An Instant Pot version
- Or a gravy-thickened version 🥩
