Spicy Pot Roast

Pot roast with a kick to it. The kick can be as big or as little as you like. Either which way, this is an incredibly easy crockpot recipe that results in pure comfort food.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 lbs chuck roast
  • 3 sticks butter
  • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • Pepperoncini peppers to taste
  • Pepperoncini peppers juice (from jar) to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place chuck roast in a crockpot.
  • Add butter.
  • Sprinkle on au jus gravy mix and ranch seasoning.
  • Add as many (or as little) pepperoncini peppers as you would like. Pour in a few splashes of pepperoncini juice from the jar (or more or less, depending on your taste buds). The more pepper and juice you add, the spicier the pot roast will be.
  • Cook on low for the day, at least 8 hours, until the meat falls off the bone and easily shreds.
  • Remove any bones and excess pieces of fat. Shred the beef using two forks.
  • Serve and enjoy! I recommend serving alongside mashed potatoes and a vegetable (green beans is my top choice!).
