Description

Fork-tender chuck roast slow-cooked with buttery potatoes, sweet carrots, and tangy pepperoncini. This one-pot wonder brings comforting flavor with barely any effort.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 pound chuck roast
  • 1 cup low sodium beef broth
  • 1 packet dry au jus gravy mix
  • 1 packet dry ranch dressing mix
  • 16 ounces baby cut carrots
  • 16 ounces baby potatoes
  • 7-8 whole pepperoncini
  • 6-8 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Optional: Sear the chuck roast in 2โ€“3 tablespoons butter over high heat until deeply golden on both sides (about 4 minutes per side).
  2. Whisk together the beef broth, ranch seasoning, and au jus gravy mix in a bowl.
  3. Add baby potatoes and carrots to the bottom of the slow cooker.
  4. Place the roast on top of the vegetables.
  5. Pour the broth mixture evenly over the roast and vegetables.
  6. Add pepperoncini and place butter on top of the roast.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 6โ€“9 hours, until roast is pull-apart tender.


Notes

Naturally gluten-free if using GF seasoning packets. Swap in dairy-free butter if needed. To thicken sauce, remove meat and veggies, then stir in 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water. Cook on high, uncovered, until thickened.
