Three Envelope Picante Roast

This recipe is currently cooking my crockpot and man does it smell good in here! Super easy and very tasty, the best combination for food if you ask me!


Three Envelope Picante Roast

1 envelope dry onion soup mix
1 envelope dry Italian dressing mix
1 envelope brown gravy mix
1 cup water
1 cup picante sauce or salsa
1 chuck roast, (mine is about about a 3 pounder) or any kind of roast really


In a bowl mix the 3 envelopes of mixes with the water. Mix well. Pour just enough of the mixture to cover the bottom of a crockpot.
Place chuck roast on top of the liquid. Pour the remaining liquid on top of the roast. (DO NOT season your roast, there is plenty of seasoning in the mixes!)
Pour the 1 cup of picante or salsa on top of the roast.
Cover and cook on high for 4 to 6 hours or on low 8 to 10 hours.

Once your roast is done, remove the meat from the crock and slice thin. Take left over liquid and place in a sauce pan. Add about 1 tbsp cornstarch to about a 1/4 cup of water and mix well to make it smooth. Add to roast liquid and heat on a medium heat until mixture thickens, making a gravy.
