Jump to RecipeTo make this delicious pot roast, start by seasoning the beef with salt and pepper on all sides. In a separate bowl, mix together the ranch and Italian dressing mix with the beef broth. These two mixes are the secret ingredients that will give your pot roast a flavorful kick. Next, place the sliced onions and minced garlic in the bottom of your crock pot. Then, add the seasoned beef on top. Make sure to place the beef fat side up so that it can melt and add even more flavor to the dish. Pour the dressing mix and broth over the beef and add in the baby potatoes and chopped carrots.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours. This slow cooking process allows the beef to become tender and juicy, while also infusing all the flavors together. Once the beef is fully cooked, remove it from the crock pot and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing it. This step is crucial to ensure that the juices stay in the beef, resulting in a moist and flavorful roast. While the beef is resting, you can use a slotted spoon to remove the vegetables from the crock pot and place them in a serving dish.
Finally, slice the beef and serve it with the vegetables on the side. This pot roast is perfect for a hearty and satisfying meal, whether it's for a family dinner or a special occasion. The ranch and Italian flavors add a unique and delicious twist to the traditional pot roast, making it a hit with everyone who tries it.
