5-Ingredient Crock Pot Roast Beef with Onion Gravy

Just five pantry staples turn a chuck roast into fork-tender beef smothered in a rich onion gravy. Just dump it in the slow cooker in the morning and come home to a comforting dinner. It's budget-friendly, beginner-friendly, and one of those back-pocket meals my two hungry kids devour.
