Equipment

  • Slow cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds boneless chuck or pot roast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 packet ranch mix
  • 1 packet au jus mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • 5-8 pepperoncini peppers
  • 1/2 cup juice from pepperoncini jar

Instructions
 

  • Take a paper towel and make sure you dry both sides of the roast.
    Heat the oil in a large skillet set over high heat. You want it really hot here to brown the beef quickly.
    Place the roast in the pan and brown on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes a side, to create a crust. Remove roast from pan and place it in the bowl of a slow cooker.
    Pour pepperoncini juice over the roast. Next, sprinkle packets of dry ranch dressing and au jus mix. Cut up butter and place on top. Top with pepperoncini.
    Cook for 8-10 hours on low. Once tender, remove the roast and shred using two forks. Return to the slow-cooker and stir well. Serve on a bun or on top of mashed potatoes.
