Ingredients
Instructions
- 1.
Swirl canola oil in a sauté pan and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear each side of the roast for 3-4 minutes, resisting the urge to wiggle it around in the pan. Leave it be, that will make your sear perfect! Flipping with metal tongs is easiest because the roast is a bit heavy.
- 2.
Transfer the chuck roast to your crock pot. Using a whisk, deglaze the sauté pan with the pepperoncini juice. Remove the pan from the heat.
- 3.
Sprinkle the roast with ranch and brown gravy seasoning (or au jus) packets.
- 4.
Pour the pepperoncini juice from the sauté pan over the top of your chuck roast and dot it with butter. Add the pepperoncini on top.
- 5.
Cook on low for 8-10 hours. Check the meat at the 8-hour mark with a fork. If it falls apart easily, it's done!
