A tender, juicy beef chuck roast slow-cooked in savory gravy and pepperoncini for the ultimate comfort food.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 packet ranch dressing mix
  • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • 56 pepperoncini peppers
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C) to ensure the roast cooks slowly and evenly.
  2. Season the chuck roast generously with salt and pepper, enhancing its natural flavors.
  3. Place the seasoned roast snugly in a baking dish, ready to transform into a tender delight.
  4. Sprinkle the ranch dressing mix and au jus gravy mix evenly over the top of the roast, allowing those flavors to soak into the meat.
  5. Top the roast with a stick of butter and scatter 5-6 pepperoncini peppers around it for that distinctive kick.
  6. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake in the oven for 4-6 hours, or until the roast is so tender it shreds with ease.
  7. Remove the pot roast from the oven and use two forks to shred the meat, mixing it well with the flavorful juices in the dish.
  8. Serve the shredded roast warm with your favorite sides, diving into the rich flavor that’s sure to impress.

Notes

Pairs well with creamy mashed potatoes, buttered corn, or crusty bread. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
