3 Envelope Roast
This was really good and easy.
"I'm not a huge fan of roast. It seems the meat just never has any flavor, despite having seasoned it. But my dad bought us this 7 pound roast and I needed a recipe to cook it up, and I found this one. I cut the roast in half so as to adhere to the recipe, but also so it would fit in my crock pot. I seasoned the meat with pepper, garlic and onion and browned in oil with garlic. The end result was really good. Still not a fan of such a bland meat, but the gravy it made was spectacular! I could have eaten it by itself." - mtdewaddict82Yield: 0 Servings Ready in 6 hours, 5 minutes

Notes 3 Envelope Roast Preparation
(Please note in a SLOW COOKER you CAN cut in half the dry ingredients if you find it overpowering.)
In the pressure cooker use the whole envelopes. I prefer the whole envelopes in either method of cooking.
Put the water in a measuring cup that is larger then the amount of water you are using. Now add and mix all three envelopes of dry salad dressings to the water. Mix until blended completely.
Brown the roast (if desired) I love mine browned in the CE 8 qt PC)
Add the meat to your cooker
Pour the water, salad dressing mixture over the roast
Now cook as usual. In the CE Pressure Cooker, I cooked it for 70 minutes and used quick release method can and probably should use natural but I am always in a hurry when making this as it smells so good! In the slow cooker cook it on high for about 4 hours on low about 8 hours.
You can use the liquid for gravy or broth!
Notes
This roast was great! My family loved it and it pulled apart with a fork.

Very good

This was the best roast I have ever made!!!! Seriously, I told EVERYONE about this recipe. I also made a beef stew using this recipe :)

Best roast I ever made

Used the pressure cooker method, turned out really good! Next time I may add just a little more water.

Delicious! I added a can of beef broth and medium onion to the mix and then 30 min before serving thickened the gravy by adding 5 tsp of cornstarch slurry to the crockpot. Even my very picky toddler who rarely eats beef devoured it...and he asked to eat the leftovers the following day for lunch. I will definitely be making this again.

Sorry...I meant 5 stars would give it 10 if I could!

Really good and easy. Next time will buy low sodium versions of dressings/gravy.

Delicious and easy! The gravy actually made itself!

I know you can do this in a slow cooker. However how do you do it without? I don't have a pressure cooker and it sounds so yummy.

I will be making this again. My kids ate it up at dinner as well as asked for it when we have leftover choice!!! I put the roast in the middle of my crock pot, added carrots on one side and potatoes and onions on the other side and sprinkled the mix over everything but didn't add any water and it was the perfect Sunday afternoon meal!!!

Delicious meat and made excellent gravy! I added beef stock since I needed more liquid for my roast.

Easy and really good

A delightful meal that is easy to make, but I find that much of the flavor is lost in the slow cooker. I recommend using double the amount of packets and maybe replacing water with beef stock (or in addition to water).

It doesn't get any easier than this! Great recipe.
|
|
I added an extra cup of water and cooked it in my slow cooker!! It was delicious!
