"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

1/4 Cup all-purpose flour

Directions:
Directions:
1. Spray the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray. Spread the onion slices out into the bottom of the cooker.

2. Spread the flour out onto a work surface. Sprinkle the roast with salt and pepper, and roll the roast in the flour to coat all sides. Pound the flour into the meat. Place the floured roast into the cooker on top of the onions. Whisk together the beef gravy mix, ranch dressing mix and Italian dressing mix in a bowl, add the water and whisk until smooth. Pour over the roast. Allow the roast to cook for about 2 hours and add carrots and potatoes, distribute around the meat.

3. Cover the cooker, set to Low, and cook until roast is tender and gravy has thickened, about 8 hours (longer if larger roast).

Personal Notes:
I actually cooked a 5 lb. roast on High and it came out fine. You can add more water if you want more gravy.
