The other week when I was busy getting ready to head out of town for a conference for 5 days, I also wanted to leave my husband and son some leftovers they could enjoy while I was gone. I decided to whip up an Easy 4 Ingredient Crockpot Beef Roast so they could eat from it once or twice while I was out of town. I just threw some ingredients I had on hand into my Crockpot
Just as the roast was finishing cooking I whipped up some potatoes and veggies and we were ready to eat! This Easy 4 Ingredient Crockpot Beef Roast is a delicious, hearty meal that takes little effort to prepare.
- 1 3 lb Chuck Roast
- 1 Lipton Recipe Secrets Onion Soup Packet
- 1 Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix Packet
- 1 can 12 oz Swanson Beef Broth
- In a small bowl, mix together the onion soup mix and the ranch dressing.
- Pour the beef broth into the crockpot.
- Place the roast in the crockpot.
- Massage the dry ingredients on the top and sides of the roast.
- Cover and cook on low for 7 hours.
- Slice and serve with potatoes and veggies.
We really liked this roast and it has been added to our meal plan rotation along with the 4 Ingredient Post Roast and the 3 Envelope Crockpot Roast.

Why not put the vegetables in with it?
You can put veggies in if you like. I recommend dicing them up and adding them in for the last 2 hours of cooking time, so they don’t get mushy. I also like to put them under the roast.
