Ingredients
- 3 pounds chuck roast
- 8 ounces Pepperoncini with liquid
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 packet gravy mix 2 tablespoons
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix 2 tablespoons
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the chuck roast to the slow cooker. Sprinkle butter, gravy mix, ranch seasoning, salt and pepper.
- Pour in the pepperoncini and the liquid from the jar. I added about half of a 16-ounce jar, but you can add more or less, depending on how spicy you like it.
- You can add salt and pepper to taste, but I find the ranch seasoning and gravy mix make it salty enough.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours. You can also cook on high for 4-5 hours, although I think it tastes better cooked on low.
- Remove the beef and shred it. It should just fall apart.
- Serve the roast over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles, and spoon some of the sauce and pepperoncini over the top.
Notes
- If you're sensitive to salt or prefer a milder flavor, use low-sodium gravy and ranch mixes or make your own from scratch.
- If you're not a fan of pepperoncini, you can substitute them with another type of pickle, like banana peppers or dill pickles. Just keep in mind that this will slightly change the dish's flavor.
- While you can cook this on high, I find it is tastier when cooked on low.
- To make this recipe in an Instant Pot, follow the same instructions, except add ½ cup of water. Then, cook on high pressure for 60-70 minutes, depending on the size of your roast. Let the pressure release naturally for 10-15 minutes before shredding the meat.
- While chuck roast is the traditional choice for pot roast, you can use other cuts of beef like round roast or brisket. These cuts may be a little leaner and may require longer cooking times to become tender.
