Instructions

  1. Add the chuck roast to the slow cooker. Sprinkle butter, gravy mix, ranch seasoning, salt and pepper.
  2. 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.
  3. You can add salt and pepper to taste, but I find the ranch seasoning and gravy mix make it salty enough.
  4. 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.
  5. Remove the beef and shred it. It should just fall apart.
  6. 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.
