I changed up the seasoning a little based on what I had in the pantry. I used 1 packet of mushroom gravy mix, 1 pack of ranch seasoning, and 1 packet of Lipton's Onion Mushroom soup mix. I also added potatoes, carrots, celery, and onion on top of the roast. It was fantastic!!! I will definitely be making it again. It was so easy and it tastes delicious.

The best roast I have ever had. I have made it 3 times now. I did have to adjust the ingredients for 2, and it is still wonderful.

AMAZING! I used only one chuck roast since there's only 2 of us and omitted the ranch, just because I was a cheapskate at the store. Definitely worth making.~ Theresa

This was so easy and tasted pretty good, although it seemed a little too salty. I too, put potatoes, carrots and some onion on the bottom.

This pot raost was amazing!!! It was so tender and FLAVORFUL! I also thickened the juices to make the gravy. My family of 4 was sad to find out there wasn't enough for seconds. I will double the amount of chuck roast next time for sure, so there is enough for seconds. I added carrots, potatos and onion to mine! Mm. Mm. MMMmm!

Very good. A little on the tangy side from the Italian dressing, which I enjoy, but if you have family members who do not just use a half a packet or less of Italian dressing. I usually uuse a 4 pound roast so I just do two of Ranch, 2 of brown gravy, and 1 of italian dressing in a cup of water. When i thinken the juices for gravy I just add some corn starch or flour to some cold waterbefore I mixit in to the juices to avoid lumps. The best part is it is so easy yet tastes so good.
