Beef Pot Roast

My sister-in-law told me to try this roast recipe off of mmmcafe, and it was really yummy.  I have had problems with my roasts turning out too dry, not enough flavor, etc. but this one was really yummy and I think I will stick with this recipe now.  And of course, it is really easy!
I didn't take this picture myself, I stole it.

3 pound-ish chuck roast, thawed

1 package dry ranch seasoning
1 package brown gravy mix
1 package italian seasoning
3/4 cup water (if using a frozen roast, only use 1/2 cup water)
Combine all 3 packages of dry seasoning and cover all sides of roast with mixture. Place in a slow cooker and pour water over the top. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4 hours.  (obviously the slower you cook it, the more tender it will be.  My crockpot is too hot and never takes 8 hours.)

    We just served it with the classic mashed potatoes/gravy. I think we also had some corn on the cob. You could do whatever you wanted with it though.
