Instructions

  1. Season the chuck roast with pepper on both sides.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 2 Tbsp oil. Once hot, sear and brown the beef for 2-3 minutes per side.
  3. 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.
  4. 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). 
  5. 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.
