Mississippi Roast - Slow Cooker
Ingredients:
- 3-4 lbs. Boneless Chuck Roast
- Kosher Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper, to taste
- ¼–½ cup All-Purpose Flour, as needed (optional)
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- ½ cup Beef Broth
- 1 packet (1 oz) Hidden Valley Original Ranch Seasoning, Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix
- 1 stick (4 ounces) Unsalted Butter
- 8 Whole Pepperoncini
- Bread, Cooked Egg Noodles, or Potatoes for serving
Instructions:
- Season chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. Rub enough flour over the roast to evenly coat the surface.
- In a large skillet pan, warm oil over high heat until very hot but not smoking. Sear the roast until browned and crusty on all sides, about 10 minutes total.
- Place roast in the pot of a slow cooker. Pour beef broth around the roast, then sprinkle with seasoning mix, top with butter, and scatter pepperoncini over and around the roast.
- Cover the slow cooker and set on low heat for 7 to 8 hours. When ready, shred the meat, mixing with the sauce in the slow cooker, and serve over bread, egg noodles, or potatoes.
