French Dip in the crockpot?

[JerseyJanice]

We did a "what are you having for dinner?" thread a while back, and a few of you mentioned French Dip in the crockpot.

One poster told me it was a rump roast, onion, two packages of au jus gravy mix, and water.

I'm assuming she meant like two cups of water (one for each package of gravy mix).

Correct? Anyone make it and want to tell me how you do it?

Rump roast is on sale at our supermarket starting tomorrow, and I'd like to try it.
