Mississippi Pot Roast

A chuck roast slow-cooked with ranch, au jus, butter, and pepperoncini until it falls apart — that gravy is the whole point.

Made with Reynolds Ranch Beef Chuck Roast · Slow cooker · LOW 8–10 hours

Ingredients

  • 3–4 lb Reynolds Ranch Beef chuck roast
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 6–8 pepperoncini peppers
  • ½ cup pepperoncini juice
  • ½ cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. 01Place the chuck roast in the slow cooker.
  2. 02Sprinkle the ranch seasoning and au jus mix over the roast.
  3. 03Add the pepperoncini peppers and juice.
  4. 04Place the butter on top and pour in the beef broth.
  5. 05Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
  6. 06Shred or serve in big, tender pieces with plenty of that savory gravy.
  7. 07Serve over creamy mashed potatoes and enjoy!

Serving suggestion

The pepperoncini keep a long-cooked roast tasting bright instead of heavy — save the pot juices to spoon over the mashed potatoes.
