Instructions
- Season the chuck roast with pepper on both sides.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 Tbsp oil. Once hot, sear and brown the beef for 2-3 minutes per side.
- In a slow cooker bowl, add the beef broth. Then, add the seared beef, and top with ranch mix, au jus powder, minced garlic, pepperoncini, and sliced butter.
- Cook on low heat for about 7-9 hours, or on high heat for 4-6 hours or until fork-tender (a thinner piece of meat will cook faster and a thicker cut will take longer).
- Shred the beef and add back into the slow cooker, gently mix until combined with the buttery gravy.
Notes
- *Ranch can vary in salt content so add salt to taste at the end. We used Hidden Valley Ranch Homestyle Seasoning Dip and Salad Dressing Mix.
- *For Gluten-free diets, check the label on the ranch seasoning and au jus or gravy mixture to ensure they are marked as gluten-free.
- -Storing Leftovers - After cooking, cool and move to an airtight container or freezer-safe zip-top bag. Refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- -To Reheat, thaw in the fridge overnight, then place the meat back into the slow cooker and heat until heated through, or place in a covered pan in the oven until warm.
