Ingredients
6 servings
- •0.5 tbsp Canola oil
- •2.8 lbs 80/20 Ground Beef
- •0.3 cup ¼ cup pepperoncini juice ($0.00)
- •1 1 Packet Ranch Seasoning (Mine Was 1 Oz, $0.54)
- •1 Gravy Mix, Brown, Dry(28g)
- •1 Unsalted Butter(57g)
- •5 Peperoncini, Pickled, Drained(45g)
Instructions
- 1Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2–3 minutes. Season the chuck roast generously on all sides, then sear for 3–4 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms.
- 2Transfer the seared chuck roast to a slow cooker, placing it fat side up.
- 3Sprinkle the ranch seasoning packet and brown gravy mix evenly over the top of the roast.
- 4Pour the pepperoncini juice around the base of the roast, then arrange the pepperoncini peppers on top.
- 5Distribute the cubed unsalted butter over the top of the roast and seasoning.
- 6Cover and cook on LOW for 8–10 hours or HIGH for 4–5 hours, until the roast is fork-tender and shreds easily — the meat should fall apart when pressed with a fork.
- 7Using two forks, shred the roast directly in the slow cooker and stir to combine with the pan juices and peppers until well coated.
- 8Divide the shredded pot roast and juices evenly into meal-prep containers, ensuring each portion gets a share of the peppers and braising liquid. Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
