This recipe offers a flavorful and tender beef roast cooked in a slow cooker, paired with perfectly seasoned vegetables.
Rinse the beef roast under cool water and pat it dry.
Drying the roast helps it sear better if you choose to brown it beforehand.
Place the beef roast in the slow cooker.
Ensure the roast is centered in the slow cooker for even cooking.
Sprinkle the brown gravy mix and ranch seasoning mix over the roast.
Spread the seasoning evenly for consistent flavor.
Add the water around the roast.
Use warm water to speed up the cooking process slightly.
Cut the carrots and potatoes into chunks and add them around the roast.
Cut the vegetables into similar sizes for even cooking.
Season the vegetables with salt and pepper.
Toss the vegetables slightly to coat them evenly with the seasoning.
Set the slow cooker on high for 3 hours.
Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain the temperature.
Reduce the setting to low and cook for an additional 2 hours.
This step ensures the meat becomes tender and the flavors meld together.
Transfer the roast to a serving platter and surround it with the cooked vegetables.
Let the roast rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain its juices.
